- How Talk picked them
- We drafted 36 phrases for giving and taking feedback (praise, suggestions, taking feedback and looking back), plus the other ways people say them (contractions, British and American forms). We counted how many of Talk's spoken videos say each one. We kept those heard in at least three lines across two or more videos, with at least one clear moment.
