AUTHOR'S ENGLISH WRTING GUIDE

Writing with confidence without overstating your results
Scientists can struggle to find the balance between conveying the importance of their research and findings without overstating their results. Being assertive reinforces that your research warrants attention. Generally, you want to state your results using direct and positive language. Weak language can detract from your main points and fail to attract interest in your research. Using phrases with many caveats and exceptions can sound uncertain, weakening your results. Examples of phrases to avoid are given below. Example 1 Though inconclusive, herein we review many methods……
Using hyphens and dashes and tildes in scientific writing
A common difficulty when writing science in English as a second language is appropriate use of hyphens and dashes, such as when to use a hyphen to join words together.

Know Your Latin Terms
Latin was, at one time, the shared language of scholars. We still see it commonly used in scientific names (like Homo sapiens or Escherichia coli), and some appear scattered through both scientific and common English writing.   Why do we use Latin abbreviations in our writing? Scientific writing prizes conciseness, or presenting an idea with minimal words. Commonly understood Latin abbreviations replace longer English terms (like “etc.” instead of “and so on / among others”).   Style consistency   Many style guides and journals disagree about whether Latin terms should or shou…
