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:
“I come back to your youth, my Nana,
as if I might clean off
the mad woman you became,
withered and constipated,
howling into your own earphone.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“There is no such thing as a language, not if a language is anything like what many philosophers and linguists have supposed. There is therefore no such thing to be learned, mastered, or born with. We must give up the idea of a clearly defined shared structure which language-users acquire and then apply to cases.”
—Donald Davidson (b. 1917)
“all to no end save beauty
the eternal—
So in detail they, the crowd,
are beautiful”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
