Sic, in other words, indicates that the word is a direct retranscription and not the result of a spelling mistake.
Usage
Template {{sic}} placed immediately after a circumstantially correct but unusual spelling or grammatically iffy statement, will add a small but superior note at that point in the text that links to this page.
