1. Use non-uniform terms. The most common mistake in interface design is to use irregular or non-uniform professional terms. Especially in English words, there will often be some common synonyms, such as: Find, Search, Query, Inquiry; Exit, Quit; Version, Revision. If you don't have a uniform use, users may think that this is a different concept, or gives the user a very unprofessional impression. The solution is to establish a term dictionary in the initial stage of program development, record some of the professional terms used in the program in it. In this process, there is best to participate in users. In this case, the use of these words will agree with the user.
2. Use the same word to express different meaning. When writing a program, sometimes some concepts are bad definitions, this time the programmer will use some more general words to represent, like Object, Item, Data, etc. But this will also be misleaded. The solution is also a professional dictionary with the user.
3. There are too professional computer terms in the program. The programmer will take these terms as a matter of course, but we have to realize that all users understand the computer and know the meaning of these terms.
4. Spelling errors. This is a very low-level mistake, although it will not affect the use of the program, but will give the user a very unprofessional impression. Therefore, each interface of the software should be checked by a dedicated document personnel to prevent this.
