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)
“No language is rude that can boast polite writers.”
—Aubrey Beardsley (1872–1898)
“Art, it seems to me, should simplify. That, indeed, is very nearly the whole of the higher artistic process; finding what conventions of form and what detail one can do without and yet preserve the spirit of the whole—so that all that one has suppressed and cut away is there to the reader’s consciousness as much as if it were in type on the page.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
