Title of Journal : Elements of Style for Writing Scientific Journal Articles
Author : Stephen M. Griffies, William A. Perrie, and Gaëlle Hull
Publisher : ELSEVIER (December 2013)
In this
journal it is explained that the author wants to convey his views on the
importance of language and why you can’t ignore manuscript language. The
author also said that poor language quality can delay or block
publication. It is important to take seriously the presentation of your
manuscript, especially the language you use to communicate results. Clarity in
writing reflects on clarity in thought. Science is far more than mere fact
recording. Written communication is key to transmitting knowledge and rendering
an impact on the field. Without clear and proper language, readers will not
grasp the full message or impact of your work. Even though the findings you
report might be cutting edge, poor language quality, including errors in
grammar, spelling or language usage, could delay publication or lead to outright
rejection of the paper. Always use proper English. Use proper English
throughout the entire manuscript, and do not forget the captions and headings
in figures, charts, graphs, and photos.
Thank you guys for your attention.
