PART 2
Previously in my blog part 1, I explain the definition, structure, and language caption text.
For now, in part 2 I'll share with you how to made caption text in the right way.
1.Do not use articles such as a, an, or the
2. As much as possible use Present Tenses so that the picture can be described
3. Give the reader information that is not obtained from just looking at the picture
4. The existence of the caption is to complete the photo, not a substitute for the photo
5. Writing the caption does not need to start with the name
6. Writing a caption to indicate an individual, can use the word "from left," NOT "from left to right."
7. No need to write clear words like “Above” and “pictured here”
8. Mention the name in the caption only if the name is really important
9. Start writing a good caption in English with some variations of the following words:
prepositional phrases
infinitive -phrases
participial phrases
adjective phrases
questions
exclamations
Tips for writing a good caption in English above, of course, can't all be used in one photo. There are some that must be adjusted based on the context.
