4 The Hong Kong Institute of Chartered Secretaries WRITING STYLE GUIDE 1. Use dot' style - e.g.: 'p.m.', 'a.m.' 2. No honorific, and avoid using 'Mr.' and 'Ms.' etc where possible (only in the first instance if necessary). 3. Use double quotes for speech and single for emphasis (e.g.: 'corporate governance' rather than "corporate governance", or We are not amused, she said). Use single quote marks for quotes within quotes. 4. Use English rather than US spelling. 5. The style for dates is: 27 January 2001, not January 27, Note the following for dates and times: 1 January 1993 (text should not be changed to follow either of these first two points in quotations on legislation including enacting dates for legislation) ; (not or ) (en rule) 1990s (no apostrophe) In text: twentieth century, but a fourth-century church or an eighteenth-century house (where used adjectivally). 20th century may be used in tables. Times should be given: 8 a.m.; 9.30 p.m.
5 6. The term Chartered Secretary should always be upper case. The term 'company secretary' is lower case unless where it is someone's official title. For example: 'company secretaries are increasingly seen as corporate governance officers,' but 'David Chan, Company Secretary, Hong Kong Electric.' 7. Use present tense for interviews. Standfirsts have no full stop (unless there are two sentences). 8. Use the following style for sub-heads: A head bold, title case; B head italics, title case; C head italics, lowercase, same font size as text, followed by en-dash and runs into text. 9. Title case means that all words in [A] and [B] titles start with a cap, but not prepositions, and, but, for, etc. 10. Photo captions should not have full stops. 11. Pullouts (highlighted quotes) don t have full stops, nor an initial cap (unless there are two sentences). They only take quotation marks when they are a direct speech quote. 12. Bullet point lists should have no punctuation until the penultimate line which has, and then the last point has a full stop. If bullets include sentences, use full stops, and no penultimate, and. 13. Bullet points begin in upper case. If the order is significant, the list may be numbered, 1, 2, 3 otherwise use bullet points. Sub-points should use letters (a) (b) (c) or i, ii, iii i.e. Roman numerals. 14. New paragraphs do not need to be indented (except in a printed document where style / layout requires), but should be a clear line below the previous paragraph. 15. Numbers one to ten are spelt out, including first, second, third etc, except when followed by per cent (% in a table) or in a table, use Arabic numerals thereafter. If there is a mixture of numbers in one sentence, use figures, e.g.: found in 9 of 40 cases.
6 Spell out figures starting sentences, e.g.: Eighty-five people went to Spelt out numbers are hyphenated, e.g. twenty-one 16. Use a comma when there are four or more figures, e.g. 2,160; 18,429 (except when referring to page numbers). 17. Numbers are separated by en-rules not hyphens, e.g September, pages (note there are no spaces either side of the en-rule unless it is being used parenthetically). 18. In text, if a person s full name is mentioned once, e.g. Clare Joyce, further references should be Joyce (i.e. the surname), except in informal documents where you may use their personal name. 19. Use upper case M for Mainland China, and on the Mainland. 20. Where a quoted extract is over 50 words, it should be typed as a separate paragraph. 21. Names of publications (journals, newspapers, etc), are in italics. Titles of articles are in quotes. 22. Italics can also be used for: Case names Emphasis Foreign words or phrases, e.g. yum cha, et al, ibid, inter alia. Although all foreign words and phrases which have been absorbed into the English language are to be in ordinary roman type, e.g.: bourgeois, elite, facade International treaties and conventions, e.g. the Hague Convention. No need to italicise Ordinances, Laws, Bills, Notes, etc. 23. Website addresses should not be underlined or in bold and should only contain the " if "www" is not part of the URL, e.g.: or Cite a direct link to the home page rather than a more detailed address. 25. ABBREVIATIONS Write out in full the first time unless it s well known, e.g. general accepted accounting practices (GAAP), OECD
7 Write out in full measurements in text, e.g. kilometres, inches, but abbreviations can be used in tables Do not use Use United States US United Kingdom UK section 39 s 39 (unless at the beginning of a sentence) art 39 article 39 para 39 paragraph 39 Ltd Limited Note: Abbreviations can be used in a technical brief or document but not in the course of normal prose. 26. AMPERSANDS Do not use in text, except for companies that have one in their name: Pictet & Cie. 27. APOSTROPHES Use to show possession not plural, e.g. in the 1990s not 1990 s Use if there is a contraction, e.g. it s, hasn t Use to show possession, e.g. the Society s office, Bridget Jones s diary Note: Contractions should not be used in a normal prose document e.g. a report. 28. CAPITALISATION Proper nouns, e.g. names, places, months, etc. Titles of office holders, e.g. Tung Chee-hwa, Chief Executive. Names of organisations, e.g. the Hong Kong Government. Use lower case if not referring to a specific organisation e.g. government, secretariat Registered trade names, e.g. Coca-Cola. Guangdong Province Southeast Asia but western China. Titles of publications (also need italics) Accounting standards enclosed in single speech marks Note: Web, website and internet do not need capitals unless at the beginning of a sentence
8 29. COLON Use a colon before a list of items, e.g. countries to visit include: Hong Kong, China, Thailand. Only capitalise after a colon if it s a proper noun or if the sentence can stand alone as a sentence. 30. COMMAS Use commas to separate items in a series, e.g. goose, liver, leg of lamb and dessert. Commas are not needed before the and. However, for clarity they are needed in: accounting and auditing, and taxation. Use a comma to separate two or more adjectives that modify the same noun, but only when the adjectives are parallel to or independent of each other, e.g. the report gave a penetrating, accurate analysis Use two commas to set off descriptive clauses (also called non-restrictive and non-defining clauses), e.g. The eldest daughter, Jane, is going to school; Eric Li, LegCo Member, has a column in CSJ. If you take out the descriptive clause the sentence still makes sense. Not to be confused with restrictive clauses which cannot be set off with commas as the meaning would be limited, e.g.: People who live in glass houses shouldn t throw stones ; Past President Peter Kam has been appointed as a Council member. Use a comma to set off a participial and infinitive phrase, introductory words or phrases Before and after a quotation, e.g. The seminar, he said, was interesting. 31. DASH Use en-rules not em-rules (not to be confused with hyphens). 32. HYPHENS Attributive phrases, e.g. long-term benefits but not long term; paid-up shares Titles, e.g. Vice-President, Secretary-General Avoidance of misunderstanding, e.g. re-register Time/Fractions/age, e.g. one-and-a-half-hour seminar; two-thirds; 26-year-old man Seldom needed with adverbs, e.g. newly launched company; publicly listed company Prefixes need hyphens, e.g. ex, anti, non, neo, post Anything followed by based needs a hyphen, e.g. home-based
9 33. MEASUREMENT No full stop after abbreviations and no (s) in the plural. Space between figure and measurement, e.g. 5 metres long Use abbrev in tables, but in text write in full 34. MONEY Specify which currency, HK$ or US$, RMB, etc In text when referring to the currency, but not an amount use renminbi, US dollar, etc 35. SEMICOLON Use to separate two independent clauses that are too closely related for a full stop but not closely related enough to need a comma, e.g. the easy part was doing the research; the hard part was meeting the deadline. Use a semicolon to separate items in a series, e.g. Mr Clarke, the Past President; Mr Smith, the President; Mr Green, the Director; and Mr Law, Vice-President. 36. SPELLING Some spelling points: Do not use judgment program bureaux fulfill cooperation center Use judgement programme bureaus fulfil co-operation centre Common spelling mistakes practice/practise licence/license effect affect practice (noun); practise (verb) licence (noun); license (verb) means result means influence
10 37. GENERAL Be careful with tenses and use of plural and singular. Adjectives (descriptive words) are rarely required in business correspondence. So avoid them instead try and personalise the message e.g. instead of The Institute is deeply grateful for your very generous support try On behalf of the Institute I would to thank you for your support In general if you would not use an adjective in verbal communication, do not do so in the written form, e.g. On behalf of the Institute I am delighted to accept your invitation to visit you rather than On behalf of the Institute I am very much delighted to accept your invitation to visit your esteemed organisation. Keep sentences short. If more than one point is made within a sentence then you can usually split it into two. New point means new paragraph. Do not worry if paragraphs are short. For reports, short is good. Always strive for clarity. Use bullet points where possible. Always have someone else, preferably someone not familiar with the topic, read your report before sending. This will save you time in the long run. And always, always, spell-check every document, including , before sending.
