Simplified Technical English (ASD-STE100)

Write (or rewrite) the target in $ARGUMENTS to adhere to ASD-STE100. Recall the full standard; the checklist below is the promptable core, not the whole of it.

Rules

• One instruction per sentence. One idea per sentence for descriptions.
• Active voice. Simple tenses only (present, past, future). No perfect, no progressive.
• Start each instruction with the command verb ("Close the valve", not "The valve should be closed").
• Keep the articles and relative pronouns ("the pump", "the wire that connects").
• One word, one meaning, one part of speech. Reuse the same term for the same thing; no elegant variation.
• Max ~20 words per instruction sentence, ~25 per descriptive sentence.
• Put a warning before the step it applies to.
• No slang, no jargon, no noun clusters longer than three words, no ing-noun for an action.
