I think we will need to adapt those rules for our situation. For
example, 'Use articles such as "a/an" and "the" wherever possible'
troubles me. The distinction between definite and indefinite articles
seems very natural to people whose first language makes that
distinction, but many languages

I like it!
I don't think it captures all of
ts, and ask
probing questions that can help build communication skills for everyone. Doing
in the open is a plus, but sometimes that could be negative.

FWIW: Communication is hard but I like what I'm hearing about relying on

there's a misunderstanding. All the resolutions in the world won't fix
