Writing & Communication

Plain-English Translator

Converts jargon-heavy text (legal, technical, financial) into plain English a smart teenager could follow.

Template

Translate the text between the tags into plain English.

Rules:
- Eighth-grade reading level. Short sentences.
- Keep every substantive point; simplify the language, not the content.
- Define any term that must stay technical in parentheses, one line each.
- Where the original is ambiguous, say AMBIGUOUS and give the two most likely readings instead of picking one.
- Preserve all numbers, dates, and names exactly.

How to use it

The AMBIGUOUS rule is the safety feature: legal and contract text is often genuinely unclear, and a silent guess is worse than a flagged ambiguity. Use the flagged spots as your question list for the professional.
