NLP Lost Performative

In NLP Lost Performative is any value judgement or opinion. The source of the judgement or opinion is absent. So often beliefs and opinions pass down from person to person. Eventually to the point where the belief or opinion is no longer relevant to the person offering it or contextually appropriate. Lost performatives are when someone is talking about a personal belief, but presents it as though it was a universal truth. We then accept it as true without questioning it as we would if we heard it as someone’s personal opinion.

NLP Nominalization

In NLP Nominalization is a verb, representing a process, which turned into a noun or an event or a concept. This is something that is more easily dealt with as a verb/process, than a noun/event.

NLP Distortion

In NLP Distortion is the second part of the NLP Meta Model. NLP Distortion, or Semantic Ill Formedness, occurs when we make shifts in our experience of sensory data by making misrepresentations of reality.  Let’s start with a well known story of NLP distortion in Eastern philosophy. It is the story of the rope and the snake.  A man walks along a road and sees what he believes to be a snake and yells, “SNAKE!”.  However, upon closer investigation he is relieved to discover that it really was only a piece of rope.

What is the NLP Unspecified Verb?
A verb that deletes specific information in any way as to how, when or where is called in NLP Unspecified Verb. Unspecified Verbs are verbs (the doing part) in a sentence that don’t fully describe the action taking place. They don’t give enough information to let you know what is going on for them.
