Repetition of index terms

Last Updated : Nov 28, 2024 |

Include as many logical keywords as you can think of in your index entries so people can more easily find what they are looking for. You can also invert the words you add and include index entries for each. In the following examples, a comma indicates the second-level index-term:

Examples

  • administrator passwords

  • passwords, administrator

  • keyboard mapping

  • mapping, keyboard

Do not invert adjective-noun compounds that need to go together to make sense. For example, do not invert hunt group or circuit cards.
