💎 Horizon: Language Precision Pass
A whole year of grammar reports for duty in one editing afternoon. Learners run three precision passes on their locked symposium scripts: the upgrade pass eliminates very/nice/thing in favour of exact words and vivid detail; the register check swaps chatty phrasal verbs for their formal twins in the roadmap and takeaway; and the structure minimums prove one correctly punctuated relative clause, one passive and one weight-bearing hypothetical. Buddy audits and micro-conferences close the loop: precision is kindness to your audience.

Key Vocabulary
Grammar Points
- Non-defining relative clauses take commas and which: Sleep, which nobody thinks of as a skill, decides half your marks — that cannot follow a comma
- Passive voice = be + past participle (The data was collected) to keep the spotlight on the result rather than the doer
- Third conditional for past-time hypotheticals: if + past perfect in the if-clause (If the school had banned phones in 2020, this talk would not exist)
- Lexical upgrading: very + weak adjective is replaced by one strong adjective (very surprising → startling); nice/good/thing are replaced by exact nouns or vivid detail
- Register pairing: phrasal verbs have formal twins for talk register (find out → discover, go up → increase, look into → investigate, talk about → discuss)
