1. Clarity and Conciseness 💡

  • Trim unnecessary words: Replace phrases like "due to the fact that" with "because" to simplify.
  • Use active voice: For example, change "The report was reviewed by the team" to "The team reviewed the report."
  • Avoid jargon: Explain technical terms if your audience isn’t familiar with them.

2. Grammar and Style 📖

  • Check for subject-verb agreement: Ensure "They is" becomes "They are."
  • Be consistent with terminology: Use "color" in American English or "colour" in British English throughout.
  • Use em-dashes for flow: Replace commas with em-dashes (—) in complex sentences.
