What is it?
The <sic> element is used to identify spelling errors in the documents. It is the first direct child of the choice element, which groups the encoding for the error (in the <sic> element) together with that of the edited correction (in the <corr> element).
For example:
[xml] But what <choice><sic>where</sic><corr>were</corr></choice> my...[/xml]
