返回课程 ASD-STE100（简化技术英语）规则部分Rule 5.3 Write instructions in the imperative (command) form. 规则5.3 以祈使句(命令)形式编写指令。

A procedural step tells the reader to do something. Write the verb in the imperative form.


Examples in STE:

Set the switch to ON.
Remove the four bolts.

Increase the pressure to 60 psi.

Inflate the tires.

Install the new O-ring.


The imperative form gives the reader a clear instruction. If you use other more complicated types of sentence structure, you can cause ambiguity. Then the reader will not know:

- If it is only generally important to do a work step
- If it is already done

- If it must be done in the future by a different person.


Examples:


Non-STE: The test can be continued.

STE: Continue the test.

Non-STE: Oil and grease are to be removed with a degreasing agent.
STE: Remove oil and grease with a degreasing agent.

    when you install the part，make sure that the rounded edge is against the structure这句话算不算祈使句？

    回复： 不是。祈使句是这样： Install the part and make sure that the rounded edge is against the structure.
