Sentences are one of the core elements of Cheemera beliefs:

All sentences must be grammatically complete and be framed in the positive sense:

Acceptable:

• The situation is puzzling
• The license in question is legally obtained.
• The temperature is above 35 degrees.

Unacceptable:

• The situation is not puzzling
• The person is not qualified as a doctor.

Topics in a sentence must make sense by itself and must avoid relative language.

Acceptable:

• The person in question is licensed to be a lawyer.
• An unacceptable situation arises.

Unacceptable:

• It is a good person (what is ‘it’?)
• The food is better than yesterday (’Better’ than what?)
