Ok so in my writing I write she said " it's just comfort care and it wa" (wa is the only sound she was able to say because I interrupted her) my professor keeps circling it, but that is really what she said, so how do I write it correctly? is there some other way?
Also in another section i wrote ...starts laughing hysterically for a moment "sh, she named it...." the sh is because she is laughing, and thats the sound that came out. How do I write that correctly ? Or is my prof just an ***? Help

by using a cliche..or something similiar...

almost like one's handle (no not the CB term for a name)...an identifier so to speak, or philosophical calling card...it is your way to view things....

e.g. if you said " you know me , I am a glass is half empty, kind of girl"..''

" or as I always say, first do no harm"

you are using a cliche or with the latter hippocratic oath but really using it as a marker/way to describe yourself...a broader usage...

I heard a speaker use a term for it before that summed it up/described it beautifully...any ideas
