Examples of articulation in a Sentence

1. Paul Feyerabend:

   Knowledge is not a series of self-consistent theories that converges toward an ideal view; it is rather an ever increasing ocean of mutually incompatible (and perhaps even incommensurable) alternatives, each single theory, each fairy tale, each myth that is part of the collection forcing the others into greater articulation and all of them contributing, via this process of competition, to the development of our consciousness.

2. Trevanian from the novel "Shibumi":

   It was not their irritating assumption of equality that annoyed Nicholai so much as their cultural confusions. The Americans seemed to confuse standard of living with quality of life, equal opportunity with institutionalized mediocrity, bravery with courage, machismo with manhood, liberty with freedom, wordiness with articulation, fun with pleasure - in short, all of the misconceptions common to those who assume that justice implies equality for all, rather than equality for equals.

3. Paul Sutter:

   Meet the member where they are. Let them articulate who they are, how they believe and how they live out that faith, we’re just looking for their articulation of their deeply held beliefs. You’re looking for a consistency in how they adhere to those beliefs.

4. Saul Anuzis:

   I think he can get past it assuming he can write it off as poor articulation of the views, if it is actually viewed as a flip-flop, then it becomes an issue.
