Basic Human Skeleton, Organs and Vien

If you are into those NCIS type of writing, then I hope this post is useful to you. In most cases, if you want to use those scientific terms, do be careful because readers might not be able to understand what the hell you are talking about. However, those terms can be of some excellent use if you know how.

Let me give you an example, 'Ma'am, your son's humerus and radius bones were broken in the car crash accident.' to 'Ma'am, your son's humerus and radius bones were broken in the car crash accident. What I mean is that his upper and lower left arm are broken.' (First, you confused your readers, then you provide them with simple common terms. This will create the 'ahhhh' / 'ooohhhh' effects.)

PS: Most common use of skeleton I came across so far is the ribs and spines (from Cervical Vertebrae to Sacrum of the back)

PS: Apart from the well known organs like hearts, lungs, livers, kidneys etc, writers usually referring to the rest as 'entrails'.

PS: Personally, I don't find this part useful except referring only to its general term - 'vein'; but it could be useful to you.

So, I'm still young and learning. If you see mistakes/improvement, please do not hesitate to point it out to me. Thank you.

Basic Human Hand and Foot Parts

Another aspect of writing is the zooms. Sometimes, the ability to describe something close up will create more effect than looking from a far. For instance, 'John injured his hand while building a shed.' to 'John smashed his thumb with a hammer while building a shed.'
