effective communication

Definition: A code-mixing phrase used by working class Hong Kongers who believe that making use of profanity is only for the sake of communicating effectively because a person can still be good-hearted regardless.

Usage: E.g. 真心 小弟現實真係冇咁爛口 講粗口都係為咗Effective Communication 盡量都對事不對人 認真講句 講粗口唔緊要 最重要係心地善良 (To be honest, I'm really not that much of a bad mouth. Swearing is for effective communication. I always try to focus on the problem and not people. Seriously, it doesn't matter if you swear. The most important thing is to be kind-hearted.)

Synonym: 有效溝通
