When is using inappropriate language or slang in your notebook appropriate?

  1. Never

  2. When you are upset

  3. When describing a suspect

  4. You are making note of a verbatim comment

The correct answer is: You are making note of a verbatim comment

Some of the other options may seem tempting but they are incorrect because inappropriate language or slang should never be used in a official or professional setting such as a notebook. Using these types of language or slang can be offensive or unprofessional, and should only be used in very specific circumstances, such as when documenting a verbatim comment made by someone else. In all other cases, it is best to avoid using this type of language in your notebook.
