One of the most significant challenges throughout history has been effectively communicating our thoughts to others.

The complexity increases when we realize that we have failed to communicate our ideas accurately and that others have misunderstood us.

"Being a professional writer isn't a skill that you're born with (as in, being a 'native' editor or writer). If that were true, then most native people of a country would automatically be qualified to write and edit professional or scientific texts simply because they were born and raised in that country and are part of that culture. This applies to all languages. Writing, editing, translating, and researching are skills that you have to learn through study and experience."
