This document discusses the importance of silence and distinguishing between the verbal and non-verbal realms of experience. It argues that:
1) Much of human experience like sensations, actions, and interactions with objects occurs on a "silent level" that is distinct and non-identical to any verbal descriptions of those experiences.
2) The richness and complexity of non-verbal experiences can never be fully captured or exhausted through language.
3) Learning to observe in silence helps people become aware of the limitations of language and avoid speaking dogmatically about topics they only partially understand. It can foster continued inquiry.
Bruce Fink argues that language emerges from the symbolic Other and that the unconscious is structured like a language. Everyday speech and free association in analysis demonstrate that subjects are unable to fully control what they say and often say more or less than their conscious intentions. This gap between intention and speech is where the unconscious emerges and shows that subjects are not always the sole agents of their own speech. The relationship between the subject, language, and the Other's desires must be explored in analysis to help subjects differentiate their own desires from those imposed by Others through language.

3.3 Using Words Well
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
1. Discuss how the process of abstraction and the creation of whole messages relate to language clarity.
2. Employ figurative and evocative language.
3. Identify strategies for using language ethically.
Have you ever gotten lost because someone gave you directions that didn’t make sense to you? Have you ever puzzled over the instructions for how to put something like a bookshelf or grill together? When people don’t use words well, there are consequences that range from mild annoyance to legal actions. When people do use words well, they can be inspiring and make us better people. In this section, we will learn how to use words well by using words clearly, using words affectively, and using words ethically.
Using Words Clearly
The level of clarity with which we speak varies depending on whom we talk to, the situation we’re in, and our own intentions and motives. We sometimes make a deliberate effort to speak as clearly as possible. We can indicate this concern for clarity nonverbally by slowing our rate and increasing our volume or verbally by saying, “Frankly…” or “Let me be clear…” Sometimes it can be difficult to speak clearly—for example, when we are speaking about something with which we are unfamiliar. Emotions and distractions can also interfere with our clarity. Being aware of the varying levels of abstraction within language can help us create clearer and more “whole” messages.
Level of Abstraction
The ladder of abstraction is a model used to illustrate how language can range from concrete to abstract. As we follow a concept up the ladder of abstraction, more and more of the “essence” of the original object is lost or left out, which leaves more room for interpretation, which can lead to misunderstanding. This process of abstracting, of leaving things out, allows us to communicate more effectively because it serves as a shorthand that keeps us from having a completely unmanageable language filled with millions of words—each referring to one specific thing.[1] But it requires us to use context and often other words to generate shared meaning. Some words are more directly related to a concept or idea than others. If I asked you to go take a picture of a book, you could do that. If I asked you to go and take a picture of “work,” you couldn’t because work is an abstract word that was developed to refer to any number of possibilities from the act of writing a book, to repairing an air conditioner, to fertilizing an organic garden. You could take a picture of any of those things, but you can’t take a picture of “work.”

Here are some key nonverbal codes I would use in this situation:
- Proxemics: Maintain closer physical distance and more frequent/lengthy eye contact to communicate affection despite the sarcastic jokes and teasing. This signals intimacy and comfort with his presence.
- Kinesics: Smiling, eye rolls, and playful facial expressions to show the teasing is in good fun rather than actual annoyance or offense. This conveys the positive emotional subtext beneath the sarcastic words.
- Haptics: Light touches, pokes or nudges can be used to punctuate the sarcastic remarks in a playful way, demonstrating the physical ease and comfort between us.

Milen martchev is the world made of languageMargus Meigo
This document examines whether the statement that the world is "made of language" can offer a meaningful insight into human cognition and potentially physical reality. It discusses how language and codes operate through binary oppositions and metaphors. Our experience and understanding of reality is shaped through language. Contemporary scientific metaphors often come from dominant technologies, like computing today. Some influential thinkers have proposed that language and physical reality have analogous structures operating at different levels, with language serving as a model for understanding the world.
This document provides an introduction to the concept of intersubjectivity. It defines intersubjectivity as the mutual recognition of each other as persons in unique relationships between distinct subjects. It discusses key elements of intersubjectivity like dialogue, empathy, and availability. Dialogue requires a willingness to share oneself and acknowledge differences. Empathy is the ability to share emotions with others. Availability means being present and willing to help others. The document emphasizes that intersubjectivity requires accepting others who are different and embracing diversity in humanity.
This document discusses strategies for teaching language to very young learners ages 3 to 5. It outlines characteristics of early learners, how they acquire language best through immersion in meaningful contexts. Specific techniques are proposed, including using gestures, visual aids, songs, chants, repetition and modeling to scaffold comprehension and production. Storytelling is emphasized as a key activity to engage young children, check understanding and allow them to personalize narratives through creative reconstruction.
This chapter introduces the concept of the Tao and discusses how it is too great to be defined by a single name. While names were created to describe and understand the multitude of things in the world, these things are merely effects of something more subtle. When we look past names and labels, we can sense the nameless cause behind these effects. At the most profound level, this cause lies at the "Gate of the Great Truth".

Introduction Chapter 4
Introduction
Janelle has been dealing with acne for years, but she is becoming increasingly frustrated and
upset about being an adult who still struggles with pimples. It is her first visit with Dr. Abraham,
a dermatologist, and she is nervous as she waits in the exam room. When Dr. Abraham enters
about 10 minutes later, he reads Janelle’s file. He does not make eye contact with her or shake
her hand, though he does offer a perfunctory, “Hello, how are you? I’m Dr. Abraham.” Janelle is
immediately put off by Dr. Abraham’s indifferent introduction, which frustrates her even further.
He asks her a few brief questions, writes down her answers, and performs a quick examination of
her skin. In a wavering voice, Janelle responds to Dr. Abraham’s questions but keeps her eyes fixed
on the floor. After about five minutes, Dr. Abraham suggests she use two prescriptions, which she
can collect from the nurse at the front desk, and return in five weeks for a follow-up appointment.
Almost as an afterthought, he asks Janelle if she has any questions. Janelle whispers, “No, thank
you,” and is barely able to hold back her tears of disappointment.
Have you ever had an awkward or frustrating encounter such as this? Perhaps you focused on
your own and the doctor’s verbal and nonverbal messages in an attempt to better understand
the situation. As you learned earlier in this text, whenever people communicate, they attempt to
share meaning by encoding messages in symbols and by decoding or interpreting the symbols
used by others. These symbols may be verbal, consisting of words in oral or written forms such
as Dr. Abraham’s greeting and Janelle’s answers to his questions. Symbols can also be nonverbal
messages such as the tone or volume of your voice, your facial expressions, touching others, use
of personal space or distance, and body movement and gestures. Janelle’s soft and wavering voice,
Dr. Abraham’s lack of eye contact, and even the time Janelle spends waiting for the doctor are all
examples of nonverbal communication.
When you communicate with others, your attention is not only focused on the words that are
said but also on the characteristics of the other communicator’s voice, his or her body language
and physical distan ...
Language plays a powerful role in transmitting knowledge from a very early age, but it does not completely control our other ways of knowing. While language can influence our perceptions and thoughts on subtle, unconscious levels, it is also influenced by perception, emotion, and reason. The relationship between language and our other ways of knowing is highly interconnected, with each having some impact on the others. The statement that language controls all other ways of knowing is an extreme view that does not fully consider the complex, two-way interactions between language and our senses, feelings, and logical reasoning.
This document provides an overview of different types of non-verbal communication presented by a group. It discusses kinesics including body posture, gestures, and facial expressions with examples. It also covers proxemics, artifacts, haptics, paralanguage, environment, and silence. The presentation aims to help understand these 9 types of non-verbal communication through individual observations and examples. It concludes with questions for readers on applying this knowledge and how non-verbal behavior has changed over time.

The document discusses Clotaire Rapaille's theory of the "Culture Code" and the process of conducting "imprinting sessions" to uncover unconscious cultural meanings. Rapaille believes cultures unconsciously assign meanings to things in different ways. His imprinting sessions use focus groups to move through phases aimed at accessing the unconscious "limbic" level of cultural imprinting, using storytelling, collages, and memory exercises while analyzing verb usage. The goal is to understand the "reptilian" survival instincts and emotionally charged reactions that form cultural codes and motivate behavior.

On Silence
WHAT IS ASKED may seem pointless, but the experience of many students of language in its
relation to life facts indicates that the procedure is effective. This is a plea for participation.
Pinch your finger. Say no words. Notice the experience. Do it again. Notice that something
happened on the silent level. You had a direct experience which may be described verbally in many
ways. But whatever might be said in words would not be what you felt by the pressure of the pinch.
You should continue to remain silent so that you may become more aware of what goes on inside-
your-skin. The nature of that inside feeling, of whatever happens, of whatever comes to awareness
is not an affair of language, but is in its entirety an un-speakable matter. This may seem obvious,
but unless it is sharply realized that what was felt belongs to the realm of silence, that it is quite
different from what may be said in the realm of discourse, we shall miss a most important factor in
the process of proper evaluation.
Pick up an object, a pencil or a book. Turn it over in your hands. Handle it. Drop it to the floor. Say
nothing as you go through these operations. Look at the object. Now say the word "book." Notice
that what you said was not the object itself. What you handled is not words. You might write with
the pencil, but you could not write with the word pencil You could drop the book to the floor, but you
could not drop the word "book" unless the word was objectified by being written on paper. You
must see that you are dealing with two distinct levels, one verbal, one silent.
Stand up and walk the length of your room. Notice the movements of your feet. Say nothing about
what you are doing. Don't even talk to yourself "inside." Merely realize that you are engaging in a
form of physical action. After walking, sit down. The action is now ended. Is it clear that the
walking took place on a level that was non-verbal, that you merely did something? Now you might
try to describe the process of walking, the way your legs move, the shifting positions of your body,
the character of the action as you felt it. Regardless of the clarity or complexity of what you have
just said, that description will not be on the silent level of the actual walking. No matter how you
walked, that action will not be on the level of what you said. Whatever you may say about your
behavior, the behavior itself will be different.
In short, the "feeling" of the pinch, the objective pencil or book, the action of walking and sitting
belong to a silent universe, while anything said belongs to a verbal universe. It must be clearly
understood that what was called "a pinch," "a pencil," and "walking" are matters which exist on un-
speakable levels, very much different from whatever exists on speech levels. Students who are in
any doubt about this point should reread the preceding paragraphs and follow the directions before
going on.
What is the importance of this emphasis on the difference between the silent and the verbal?
2. In the first place, it must be realized that our lives are lived on the silent, objective levels, that
whatever we "think," "feel," and "do" happens as such silently, and that only as a secondary matter
does talk come in. Actual living happens silently and is first in importance before speech. When
you sit down to dinner hungry, you are primarily interested in the silent food before you. The
digestive system, blood stream, etc., could not be nourished by words, but only by life facts
capable of being digested. As Emerson says in "New England Reformers,"
The sight of a planet through a telescope is worth all the course in
astronomy; the shock of the electric spark in the elbow outvalues
all the theories; the taste of the nitrous oxide, the firing of an
artificial volcano are better than volumes of chemistry.
Language enters to serve auxiliary functions as a convenience at a different level of life. Whatever
use that language serves will be a use quite different from the use to which the food is put in the
stomach. Experiences of anything are primary in human living. And whatever may be said of them
does not appear as a part of that silent living.
Secondly, objective levels, objects, feelings, happenings, actions, etc., are infinitely diverse and
complex in their characteristics. So full of particulars are they that their fullness can never be
reached by words. The classic example of the inadequate coverage of speech appears in the futile
attempt to describe the taste or color of something to one who has never had a similar direct
experience. To know a taste or color it is necessary to go beyond the words to the experience
itself. Though the tasting or the seeing may be immediate and seemingly simple, the full
perception is so inconceivably complex that one cannot get to it by words alone. It can be reached
only as a first-order direct effect of the experience. The same may be said of objects. One may pick
up an object and say "This is a book" without recognizing the false-to-fact character of what was
said. The object appears as an absolute individual full of countless characteristics and it is not
words and never can be; to speak as if they are "identical" may be described as delusion. Further, to
say that it is a "book" is to say something that does not correspond to the totality of the object.
Whatever is said is not "all" that can be said. The manifold uses, interpretations, characteristics of
the silent objects and first-order experiences with which we become acquainted are ever so
infinitely complex and diverse that talk cannot exhaust them. A feeling of this may be at the bottom
of Maeterlinck's view in Treasure of the Humble:
It is idle to think that by means of words, any real communication
can ever pass from one man to another. From the moment we have
something to say to each other, we are compelled to hold our peace.
And in the Book of Job (ii:13):
So they sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven
nights and none spoke a word unto him: for they saw that his grief
was very great.
For us, even more important is this: an understanding of this silent universe will help dissolve the
false-to-fact character of our limited, too-often dogmatic talk.
In the third place, when you realize the complexity of un-speakable levels, you may not be so eager
to "burst into speech." It is easy to say something about anything. It is not so easy to be conscious
of the limited, partial character of what is said. Verbal levels represent abstractions of some details
3. from the fullness of the silent objects, actions, and experiences. This consciousness of abstracting
whenever one talks will be more readily acquired when one stops to notice the silent levels. The
acquisition of this habit is most difficult. Existing educational procedures somehow generate
habits of speaking as the primary human function, so that students too readily speak without
awareness that the first-order experiences about which they speak are unreachable by words. To
train students to be silent, to know they live on a level comparable to the level of "things" goes
contrary to conventional training. And yet training in silence seems to be the most practical means
by which to become aware that there are un-speakable realms in actual living. One must learn to be
silent outwardly as well as inwardly. Students should learn to look at objects and actions while
closing their lips with one hand. To see what is going on and to evaluate it properly without
identification we must be silent. There must come a consciousness that as soon as we speak we
shall be leaving out differences and emphasizing similarities. Learning to point with a finger will
keep the silence. Looking and pointing are silent means of expression, analogues of the silent
world. Silence on the objective levels may well be the first step to the achievement of a
consciousness of abstracting and of the realization that there is much more in our world than we
normally take cognizance of.
In the fourth place, one of the more immediate beneficial results of acquiring the habit of silence is
the development of an awareness that study and analysis are on-going, never finished. When once
this is understood, the student develops a creative outlook; more and more of the limitless content
of the world about him comes into view. Silence gives opportunity for observation. There is time to
see what there is to be seen. Arguments, debates, conflicts are quickly generated when the objects,
situations, people are known only in part but thought and talked about otherwise. The habit of
silence gives one time to look first before speaking. And that looking is, after all, the creative
source of what we know as science, art, technology, etc.
The experience of those who have learned silence on the objective level reveals a heightened
development of critical attitude. Constant and continuing use of silence when writing or speaking
may develop sharply the memory of characteristics left out, no matter what the subject under
consideration. Statements are not the un-speakable world; the demarcation of the two levels
automatically suggests that statements will leave some things unsaid, some characteristics
omitted. Inquiry, investigation, further searching--these are the hall-marks of useful criticism.
Students will learn, once silence is fundamental in their reactions, to ask questions: "What do you
mean?" "Does that statement cover all?" "Where was the abstracting?" Questions inevitably lead to
further search and more talk and an understanding of the limited reasons for whatever conflicts
arise.
Our eagerness to make statements on matters which may be foreign to our experience or
knowledge may well be a major source of the superficiality of so much speech-making and writing.
Students too readily take what they hear and see as the full expression and the complete
experience, instead of sharply realizing that too often those statements are merely introductory to
the matter in question. As Walter Lippmann has said in his book Public Opinion, "For the most part
we do not first see, and then define, we define first and then see." The achievement of silence
should reverse this unnatural pattern. Looking at the silent world, we must first be silent. For unless
we have learned to observe the vast panorama, "the great blooming buzzing confusion of the outer
world," we shall pass over too much that we might know about.
It is important to point out that "we do not repress or suppress ... the bursting into speech; a
gesture of the hand to the labels reminds us that words are not objects, or actions, or happenings,
or feelings." (1) Lapsing into silence will have a jarring effect, which is not to repress but to make
for the realization of an important evaluation mechanism in which we must be trained, if we would
avoid the harmful effects of speech which becomes false-to-fact when too little is considered. (2)
Phatic Communion
4. Silence must be regarded as a methodological device of first importance when it functions to
induce delay, to aid the inspection of life facts, and to achieve a non-allness orientation. But there
are occasions when we do not wish to keep still, when we talk for the sheer joy of talking...
