4. Instead of saying you will be punished say THERE ARE CONSEQUENCES TO THIS

5. Instead of saying I am talking and you are not paying attention say I WILL LIKE TO GET YOUR ATTENTION

6. Instead of saying I don’t have your time say I WILL LIKE TO END THE CONVERSATION NOW

7. Instead of saying what you are saying does not make sense say IS THERE ANY OTHER OPTION THAN THIS?

8. Instead of saying what you are doing is bad say THIS BEHAVIOR IS INAPPROPRIATE

9.Instead of saying this child is a slow learner say THIS CHILD IS AN UPCOMING LEARNER

I don't quite agree with most. Why should I mince my words? For clarity sake, I'll rather go with the "unacceptable".

It makes no difference for me, I'm a blunt person and I appreciate bluntness from people. if you use the later expressions, I all still interpret it as the former.

Re: Civil Ways To Communicate (pragmatics) by bluefilm: 2:01pm On Apr 18, 2019
And the social engineering process continues...

These days, it is no longer appropriate to call a spade a spade.

One can no longer say what he really has in mind just because he's bound to offend some people.

It's okay.

So my dear obese ladies out there, you guys are now curvy which is sexy, so there's really nothing to worry about now.
