Avoidable audio micro-course (transcript)
Podcast 1 — Introduction & meaning
Narrator: Today's word is "avoidable" — an adjective, pronounced /əˈvɔɪdəbəl/, with the stress on "void".
Narrator: Avoidable means capable of being prevented or steered clear of — an avoidable mistake, avoidable delays.
Narrator: In plain English, avoidable is a problem that didn't have to happen.
Narrator: Its root is Latin "vitare", to shun, through Old French "esvuider", influenced by "void", empty.
Narrator: The word carries an implicit accusation — calling something avoidable assigns some responsibility for its happening.
Narrator: Medicine and safety reports use it precisely — avoidable harm, avoidable deaths, categories tracked for improvement.
Narrator: Business writing leans on it in post-mortems — an entirely avoidable delay caused by poor planning.
Narrator: Its opposite, unavoidable, removes blame entirely — an unavoidable delay due to weather.
Narrator: So remember: avoidable is a problem with a name attached to its cause — preventable, and often someone's fault.

Podcast 2 — In conversation
Speaker A: A hospital report kept using the phrase "avoidable harm". That felt like a very careful, deliberate choice of words.
Speaker B: It absolutely is deliberate! AVOIDABLE — from Latin "vitare", to shun — carries real weight in safety reporting, because it implies the harm didn't have to happen. Calling something avoidable is close to assigning responsibility.
Speaker A: So the word itself does some of the accusing?
Speaker B: Exactly — that's why "unavoidable" is the word everyone hopes for instead. Avoidable implies a process failure somewhere; unavoidable implies genuine bad luck!
Speaker A: Example sentences?
Speaker B: "The delay was entirely avoidable with better planning"; "the report categorised the incident as avoidable harm"; "most kitchen fires are avoidable" — business, healthcare, and safety campaigns.
Speaker A: Common mistakes?
Speaker B: Watch the spelling — a-v-o-i-d-a-b-l-e, easy to drop the second A. And be careful using it publicly about a specific person's mistake — it can sound like blame even when you intend a neutral observation!
Speaker A: Close relatives?
Speaker B: "Preventable" the near-identical twin, "needless" adds emotional weight, "unnecessary" the everyday cousin, "unavoidable" the blameless opposite. Avoidable keeps the implicit responsibility!
Podcast 3 — Prompt engineering
Speaker B: Let's use "avoidable" in AI prompts — great for root-cause analysis and error-prevention features.
Speaker A: So avoidable in a prompt means find and eliminate preventable failures?
Speaker B: Right. For an incident-tracking tool, you'd write:
Prompt: Categorise every production incident as avoidable or unavoidable in my tracker, and generate a monthly report showing what caused each avoidable one.
Speaker A: Good — what about customer support?
Speaker B: The support-analytics prompt:
Prompt: Identify avoidable support tickets caused by unclear documentation, and suggest which help articles need rewriting based on the pattern.
Speaker A: Project delays?
Speaker B: The retrospective prompt:
Prompt: Build a retrospective template that separates avoidable delays caused by planning gaps from unavoidable ones caused by external factors.
Speaker A: One more?
Speaker B: The QA prompt:
Prompt: Flag avoidable bugs in my codebase caused by missing input validation, and generate a checklist to prevent that category recurring.
Speaker A: Avoidable always means finding the fixable root cause, not just the symptom.
Speaker B: Exactly — say avoidable, and the AI hunts for the preventable cause, not just logs the failure.
