  • understanding the concept of individual reality tunnels can be used as a foundation for using e prime.

    our reality tunnels seem to be created from broad cultural agreements or gestalts on what we currently believe is true or not. I have found that relating the reality tunnel concept before launching into e prime greatly enhances emotional content and prevents my communications from becominig too wishy washy and non commital

  • I find when I have to think too much about how to write a sentence, I just use "to be". When writing fiction, the vagueness of "to be" can actually have a beneficial effect, adding some form of poetic depth. In dialogue I don't even think about it at all: all of my characters use forms of "to be" just like ordinary persons would

    In the end, I find it a good way to avoid passive voice. You just shouldn't overdo it.

  • Maybe studying the Orang Asli language and translating it might be helpful in finding out how they include emotion in the language...

  • e prime challenges the mind but forces digressions. also because of its logical

    nature e prime steals emotional content

  • Some people have the observation that e prime should only be used in scientific papers and articles.And its not usefull for discribing your feelings poetry or telling a joke

  • i commend you, i find e prime challenging.which, I like. one day, i might delete the "I" from my speech. which hopefully provides greater challenges. Korzybski must laugh at us.
