“You know there’s always more than one way to say exactly what you mean to say.” – Fastball –
Communication is explained by Labov and Fanshel (er?) “in terms of hearers accurately identifying the intended meaning of the speaker’s utterance and responding to it accordingly. However, giving the multi-functionality of utterances, we cannot be sure that a hearer always picks up the ‘right’ interpretation of an utterance.”
Just something to think about…
hmmm….

Fantastic. Also…
The boundary between awareness of feeling and expression of feeling in words is very fluid. There is the comletely non-verbalized experience, and close to it the experience in which a word appears like a vessel that “contains” the feeling and yet does not contain it; for the feeling is constantly flowing and it overflows the vessel. The word-vessel is more like a note in a musical score, which is a symbol for a tone but not the tone itself.
-Erich Fromm, The Art of Being (1989)!
