Limp celery: Difference between revisions

[[Nominalisation]] is a good way of softening up declarations which, otherwise, might suggest you have an opinion or have exercised actual judgment. A [[Mediocre lawyer|cautious attorney]], instead of supporting a proposal, might indicate that she is [[supportive]] ''of'' it. Likewise, instead of agreeing with a colleagues contention, she might be ''[[inclined to agree]]'', thus reserving the right to veer off in a different direction at a later date should expedience require it.
