I misread a word in my recording and didn't catch it until later. I have read through a bunch of articles on editing, but can't find the one that tells how to go into the middle of an audio file and add a clip. With my basic tech skills I can't figure it out just messing around with Audacity. What am I missing here?

A very common situation. Here is a video I made on replacing words in Audacity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgNCkTRLaS8 The technique is what I use and may help. If not someone else will be sure to respond. Keep asking questions!!!

And sometimes, some sound overlaps occur too. Then expand (zoom in) and remove the unwanted overlap. this is particularly when re-recording of the word and copy/ pasting calls for remastering effort.

And remember the marvelous 'c' key that lets you listen to what you have pasted in to see if everything sounds good before actually doing it. And of course the 'z' key that removes your last edit so you can start over again and do it right.
