Designers will ___ the final mockups to engineering on Friday.
To hand off designs means to formally transfer finished design work to developers to implement. It is the standard collocation: "hand off the screens with specs". "Pass over off", "give down", and "drop over" are not idiomatic. Hand off works as verb and noun (a handoff) and pairs with designs, specs, and work.

Please ___ the mockups with notes on spacing and behaviour.
To annotate designs means to add explanatory notes (measurements, states, interactions) so engineers know exactly what to build. It is the standard collocation: "annotate the edge cases". "Note over", "mark down over", and "label off" are not the term. Annotate pairs with designs, mockups, and diagrams, reducing ambiguity at handoff.
3 / 5
We should ___ each component so its variants are clear.
To spec components means to define their precise properties, states, and behaviour. It is the standard collocation: "spec the button states". "Plan over", "set out over", and "frame off" are not idiomatic. Spec (short for specify) pairs with components, behaviour, and API, and gives developers a clear contract to implement.
4 / 5
Design and engineering need to ___ on the colour and spacing tokens.
To align on tokens means to reach shared agreement on design tokens (named values for colour, spacing, typography) used across the system. It is the natural collocation: "align on the design tokens". "Line over", "agree out", and "match off" are not idiomatic. Align pairs with "on" plus a topic, signalling consensus before building.
5 / 5
Engineering will ___ the implementation against the designs.
To review the implementation means to inspect the built result and compare it to the intended design. It is the standard collocation: "review the build for visual accuracy". "Look over off", "check up over", and "eye off" are not idiomatic. Review pairs with designs, code, and implementation, and closes the handoff loop.
