1951C. Kluckhohn et al. in Parsons & Shils Toward Gen. Theory of Action iv. ii. 397 ‘Verbalizable’ is not to be equated with ‘clearly and habitually verbalized’. The actor's values are often..incompletely..verbalized by him. But implicit values remain ‘conceptions’..which can be put into words by the observer... Verbalizability is a necessary test of value. 1981N.Y. Times Mag. 24 May 10/4 The path was cleared for the substitution of the verbalizable ‘or’ by the unspeakable ‘/’ in the legalistic term ‘and/or’. |
