Controlled language

Fact

A way of writing with limited words and grammar to avoid confusion.

In Plain Words

Controlled language is like a drive-thru script. Say “burger, fries, no pickles,” not a Shakespeare speech.

You meet it in manuals and help desks. It helps bots read it right, and teams update it later.
