Popular apology-language frameworks distinguish several ways to discuss repair after harm.

Their labels do not determine whether an apology is sufficient or a partner must forgive. Use this tool to select a short stored reference note.
When to use Apology Language Lookup
Use this tool to select a short stored reference note. Establish the planning scope, matching instrument or reference, observation definitions and currency or time basis.
How to use Apology Language Lookup and understand its results
- Establish the planning scope, matching instrument or reference, observation definitions and currency or time basis.
- Enter topic, using the field meanings and rules below, then run the tool.
- Read result.text. Interpret each field using the units, signs and evidence rules below.
- If input validation fails, correct the reported field and run again. Before applying a successful result, check the stated reference scope, units, assumptions and any retained unknown evidence.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| topic | Topic | string | Required |
Choose one of the exact, case-sensitive topic tokens listed below and run the tool. The implementation selects the corresponding stored text from a fixed object and returns it as result.text. Unknown tokens fail rather than fall back. The strings are shipped with the committed implementation: no search, generated forecast, external-corpus retrieval or live update occurs. The table preserves the actual stored wording.
| Exact topic token | Actual stored response |
|---|---|
| summary | Popular apology-language frameworks discuss regret, responsibility, restitution, repentance and forgiveness requests. |
| reference | Chapman/Thomaspopular apology framework. |
| limitations | Offline bounded framework note, no partner diagnosis, exclusive category, validated instrument or evidence that matching labels guarantees satisfaction. |
result.text=storedTopics[exact topic token] Apply the field units and exact ordering, boundary and evidence rules above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| result | Structured result containing the calculation or selected reference fields below | object |
| result.text | Stored reference text selected by the exact topic token | string |

} Limitations and assumptions
Coverage is limited to the topic table above. Stored wording may be abbreviated and does not provide a complete external corpus, report, benchmark inventory or updated forecast.
Every listed input requires an explicit value. Unexpected fields, incorrect value types, nonfinite numbers and sparse numeric arrays fail validation; tool-specific bounds and alignment rules apply as described above. Extremely large inputs or outputs can also be rejected. An input error is distinct from a successful calculation that reports a false comparison or retains unknown evidence.
