cliche expressions euphemisms, and doublespeak
language.

data, statistics or figures. To achieve concreteness,
abstract words must be avoided.

grammar obscure the meaning of asentence.

the audience. Sender of a message must
consider recepient’s prefession, level of
education, race, ethnicity, hobbies, advocacies
and age when drafting or delivering a message.
