Clean Language in Detail

Clean Language combines four general elements of communication in a very specific way, that is syntax, wording, vocal qualities and nonverbals.

Note: we refer to the person asking the questions as the 'facilitator' and the person receiving the questions as the 'client'. Alternatively, we may use the terms 'questioner' and 'questionee'. This habit comes from the therapeutic roots of the Clean Language process. Depending on the context, these labels could be 'coach' and 'coachee', 'interviewer' and 'interviewee', 'doctor' and 'patient', and so on.

Famous quotes containing the words clean, language and/or detail:

    “When long ago I saw her ride
    Under Ben Bulben to the meet,
    The beauty of her country-side
    With all youth’s lonely wildness stirred,
    She seemed to have grown clean and sweet
    Like any rock-bred, sea-borne bird....”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Man, even man debased by the neocapitalism and pseudosocialism of our time, is a marvelous being because he sometimes speaks. Language is the mark, the sign, not of his fall but of his original innocence. Through the Word we may regain the lost kingdom and recover powers we possessed in the far-distant past.”
    —Octavio Paz (b. 1914)

    “all to no end save beauty
    the eternal—

    So in detail they, the crowd,
    are beautiful”
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
