[QUOTE="inyati13, post: 1131960, member: 17767"] You are spending some time thinking. :) You made a thoughtful point. Poor communication can be a result of the inadequacy of words. I have thought about certain concepts and the reality that there are not the right words to express them. Emotions and feelings in particular are difficult to express in words. I see examples of the wrong word like the one you used as an example all around us. Here is one that has occupied my mind: The phase. "Trickle Down Economics". The concept behind it is essentially that a capitalistic country needs wealth creators in order for wealth to circulate in the economy. It is vital, but when you make it sound like there is a person at the bottom of the heap that gets only a "trickle"; it sounds like a bad thing. I don't know if the proponents of the concept coined that phase or the opponents. I suspect the opponents. [/QUOTE]
