Yeses & Noes
I had to look up the proper pluralisation of yes and no for this post!
And when I did it turned out that there are variations: there are several different options for both. Do you capitalise your YES to make it clear? Do you simply refer to a lot of negativity as “nos”? Do you dare to offend grammar lovers by adding apostrophes?
Whatever you decide you have to be ready to say why.
Which brings us to the viva: when you’re sharing what you did during your PhD there are some aspects that could seem as simple as a yes or a no.
Yes I did that or no I did it this way. While it might be simple you’ll still need to say why.
Be ready to share the whys for all your yeses and noes at your viva.
