Treated in
- Part Two — How to PracticeFinding Your Local RuleFour honest questions — loved, capable, needed, sustainable — and the overlap where a rule worth repeating actually lives.
- Part Three — The Loop TongueThe Grammar of PatternThe Loop Tongue's working vocabulary, plus the Word/Label test — is a term pulled toward something real, or pushed to produce a reaction?
