Daily English Review Skill

This skill reviews English translations in daily journal entries for English learning purposes.

Daily Format

Daily entries use this structure:

---
date: YYYY-MM-DD
publish: true
---

::ja

[Japanese content - what they want to say]

::en

<!-- draft:
[User's English attempt - needs review]
-->

<!-- review:
[Review notes go here]
-->

[Final English version goes here]

Review Process

Step 1: Read and Understand

  1. Read the ::ja section to understand what the user wants to express
  2. Read the <!-- draft: --> to see their English attempt
  3. Identify errors and areas for improvement
  4. Note any image embeds (![[image.jpg]]) in the ::ja section

Step 2: Provide Review Notes

Add corrections to the <!-- review: --> section in this format:

- "original phrase" → "improved phrase" (reason in Japanese)

Step 3: Generate Final Version

Write the polished English version after the review comments.

Step 4: Include Images

Copy any image embeds from the ::ja section to the end of the ::en section to maintain visual consistency.

Review Priorities

  1. Grammar correctness: Fix basic errors first
  2. Natural expression: Make it sound natural
  3. Meaning preservation: Keep the original intent
  4. Brevity: Daily entries are short, keep reviews focused

::en

<!-- draft:

<!-- review:
- "cleaned up vault" → "cleaned up my vault" (冠詞追加)
- "deleted old daily" → "deleted the old daily files" (冠詞追加、filesで明確に)
- "made new system" → "set up a new system" (より自然な表現)
