which allows one to see the makings of a trend reversal in communication in progress Explanation: Hello, Here's my understanding: un retournement = reversal (in a trend) central = major pour la communication = with regard to communication s'esquisse = is identifiable (can see the "outline" of it) More literally, "the "triangle infernal" through which a major trend reversal in communication can be identified..." Or, one could say more naturally, "triangle infernal which allows one to see the makings of a trend reversal in communication in progress" (one can see its "outline developing"). I hope this helps. |
