Microcopy

Microcopy Principles

  1. Be specific. "Save Project" not "Submit."
  2. Use verbs for actions. Buttons are actions, not descriptions.
  3. Front-load key words. "Delete 3 files" not "Are you sure you want to delete 3 files?"
  4. Match user's mental model. "Trash" not "Soft Delete."

Patterns

Buttons

  • Primary: specific verb + object. "Create Account," "Send Invoice."
  • Secondary: shorter. "Cancel," "Skip."
  • Destructive: clear consequence. "Delete Project" not "Remove."

Error Messages

Formula: What happened + Why + What to do.

  • "Your password must be at least 8 characters."
  • NOT: "Invalid input."
  • NOT: "Error 422: Validation failed."

Empty States

  • "No messages yet" + actionable CTA.
  • NOT: "There are currently no items to display."

Confirmations

  • "Project deleted." (past tense, brief).
  • "Saved." (one word if obvious).
  • NOT: "Your changes have been successfully saved!"

Placeholders

  • Example data: "[email protected]" not "Enter your email."
  • Disappears on focus, so never rely on it for instructions.
