Journalism / article about the effects of the tsunami in Thailand.
Swedish term or phrase: Först behöver vi befinna oss högt konjunktivt, dvs faktamässigt
Peter sammanfattar första stegen tillbaka och samtalens inriktning. Först behöver vi befinna oss högt konjunktivt, dvs faktamässigt. Vi talar om hur det såg ut, vad såg du, hur smakade det, dofter etc. Sedan går vi igenom transformeringsfasen, en tankefas, frågan ställs: Vilken var din första tanke när du insett vad som inträffat? (Jag har förlorat min familj, jag vill inte leva, eller, Jag behöver mat för att orka, hur ska jag få det?)
