9. Deciphering the Patent
For those who do not already know, it can be hard to read and understand law agreements because of their language and phrasing. However, for those who find that challenging already, patents are another level above those. It is even more difficult to understand a patent because of the additional technical language in it. Understanding the details of a patent then requires someone with both the knowledge of reading law language as well as technical language. The combination of skill set required then makes people who are well-versed in both areas to be in high demand. This is especially so since every word in the patent is essential and have to be carefully crafted because infringement requires all elements in the claim to be satisfied. With this said, I hope that everyone will be able to have such valuable skill sets so as to be more marketable.

I found it pretty difficult to understand the patent descriptions we went over in class, especially because of the technical language involved. However, I think that breaking some sentences down and omitting some words made it much easier to grasp the idea of the patents. But like you said, since every word in the patent is important, there is definitely a possibility that I missed some important aspects about the patents.
