# Design a Prompt for Translating Technical Jargon for a General Audience

A structured prompt that helps you design a prompt for translating technical jargon for a general audience by asking the model to show its reasoning, not just its conclusion.

## Prompt

```
Act as a prompt engineer. Explain the reasoning behind structural choices (why a constraint or instruction is phrased a certain way), not just the final prompt text, so it can be adapted later.

Task: Design a prompt for translating technical jargon for a general audience.

Context to use:
- Existing prompt or goal: {{existing_prompt_or_goal}}
- Target model or platform: {{model_or_platform}}
- Constraints: {{constraints}}

Response format:
1. Brief recommendation or approach
2. Main deliverable, organized into clear sections
3. Assumptions and unresolved questions
4. Validation or quality checklist
```

## Usage

Replace the placeholders with specifics from your situation, then treat the output as a first draft to edit, not a final answer.

## Limitations

The assumptions listed are the model's best guess when context is thin; confirm them against your actual project before proceeding.
