Presuppositional Forms: Stressed Sentences & Complex Adjectives – Today, when someone presents a simple outcome or limitation (using few enough words that it can be presupposed in a longer sentence. Ex. “being confident” or “making more money”), use the following presuppositional form to presuppose the outcome or to change the limitation into a resource.
Stressed Sentences: voice stress – use in combination with other presuppositional forms.
“Will you be confident NOW or later?”
Complex Adjectives: new, old, former, present, previous, etc.
“Are you HAPPY with your present confidence level?”
“I hope you noticed the initial ways in which you actually made more money than in the PAST.”
