Editor's Notes
- #2 Font judul chapter lebih besar dari “chapter 6”. Cari warna font yang lebih kontras dari warna background. Tulisan chapter 6 nggak keliatan. Jangan pilih warna merah di atas merah. Warna font credit jangan item nggak keliatan
- #4 Maksudnya ini “Present perfect tense may refer to: events in certain adverbial or adjective clauses.“ apa ya? Hubungan gambar sama konten apa ya? Tulisan kredit nggak terbaca. Pilih warna terang diatas background gelap.
- #5 Perhatikan kapitalisasi dan punctuation. Jangan sampai lupa. Apa hubungannya gambar dengan konten?
- #6 “He didn’t go to the orchestra” juga kalimat jadi perhatikan kapitalisasi dan tanda baca juga. Kalimat yang lain juga begitu. Chek lagi. Yang benar “Hasn’t verb 3/been” bukan “Hasn’t verb 3 / been”. Tanpa spasi sebelum dan sesudah “/”. Font size perbesar minimal 20pt. Kolom present perfect di merge cell biar lebih rapi. Hubungan gambar dengan konten apa? Warna font credit untuk gambar tidak kelihatan kalo pake hitam. Pilih warna terang di atas background gelap.
- #7 Ukuran font minimal 20pt. Perhatikan kapitalisasi dan tanda baca kalimat. Harusnya “Have you visited your friend?” Check juga kalimat lain. “He was at the hall” bukan kalimat interogatif. Cek lagi. Font untuk credit jangan hitam. Tidak keliatan.
- #8 Untuk kerapihan dan keterbacaan, tulisan jangan nabrak gambar.
- #9 Untuk kerapihan dan keterbacaan, tulisan jangan nabrak gambar.
