Subject-Predicate-Object Triples

Entry #564 / 700 · Chapter 12 · 12.2 Entities, fact density and trust signals · Read in Chinese →
In one sentence

Writing key descriptive sentences as explicit subject, precise relational verb, and definite object, so that machine parsing has almost nothing to infer.

Analogy Mental model

A form that states the person, the role held, and the company, against a paragraph about a spring evening and a long-awaited promotion.

In practice What you actually do

In product summaries and company descriptions, write dense declarative sentences that carry the facts directly: what integrates with what, which standards are met, what the measured capacity is. Save the flowing prose for the sections that need it.

Where people get burned Pitfalls

Specifications, certifications, compatibility, and pricing are exactly the facts that must not be wrapped in subordinate clauses or metaphors. Ambiguity there produces wrong answers rather than merely dull ones.
