Ofte vil patienten snarere udleve, gentage og i en vis forstand demonstrere, hvad der er kernen i hendes problem, via den måde, hun fortæller om sig selv og sit liv på, og den måde, hvorpå hun relaterer sig til og interagerer med terapeuten.
However, one cannot expect that the patient is, on her own, able to specify and speak of the core of her difficulties. Rather, the patient will often live, repeat and in a sense demonstrate, what the core of her problem is, through the way she speaks of herself and her life, and the way in which she relates to and interacts with the therapist.
3.2010, Anette Søgaard Nielsen, Behandlingsarbejde i team, Hans Reitzels Forlag, →ISBN, page 150:
Kernen i vores arbejde er ikke - som man måske kunne tro - indsamlingen af store mængder data og besværlige analyser. Kernen i kvalitetsudvikling er tværtimod[sic] udviklingen af en kultur, hvor der er tradition for systematisk at drøfte kvaliteten i fora, der mødes regelmæssigt.
The core of our work is not - as one might think - the collection of great amounts of data and difficult analyses. On the contrary,[sic] the core in quality development is the development of a culture with a tradition of systematically discussing the quality in forums that meet regularly.

Lars foretrak appelsiner uden kerner, da han hadede at skulle frasortere kernerne.

The English word is cognate with Italian esito, Portuguese êxito, Spanish éxito.[1] Doublet of ejido.The verb is derived from the noun.[3][4]
[Etymology 2]

[Etymology 1]
editFrom Latin I.
[Etymology 2]
editFrom Old Norse ek, from Proto-Norse ᛖᚲ (ek), from Proto-Germanic *ek, *ik, from Proto-Indo-European *éǵh₂. The upper case spelling might be an orthographic influence from cognate English I, or as a means to differenciate from native preposition i (“in”).
[Etymology 3]
editPossibly through Danish I. From Old Norse ér, ír, from Proto-Germanic *jūz, from Proto-Indo-European *yū́. Compare with de. The upper case spelling might be explained either by its use as an honorific, or with its plausible Danish origins.
