Natural, conversational language

This write-up of qualitative research appears in He Ara Oranga, Report of the Government Inquiry into Mental Health and Addiction, 2018. 

You can hear the language of the interviewees

The writers have not tried to fancy it up. They’ve stayed true to the original spoken language while paraphrasing it. 

Notice how the language choices make you trust these researchers. You see them as good listeners and allies of the people they interviewed.
