8.0.1.4 Phrasing of the ConclusionsVersion 1.2 August 2014                              Previous Version Even if we agree on the substance of a conclusion (i.e. what it really means), we can still debate how each conclusion should be phrased, and what level of detailed should be included. Many words, even in the same language, have different implications and connotations to different people. In different languages supposedly equivalent words may have extensively different connotations. How a conclusion is phrased will vary according to the language used – English, Hindi, Chinese or Swahili. And all languages evolve, changing over time, as new words and phrases come into the language or are used to mean different things.  In each language we try to select the currently most appropriate phrasing, but the choice of words is very debatable. 8.0.1.4 We must continually review how we phrase our beliefs and values, and multiple versions are possible and appropriate.
