How has semantic malfunction and our patterns of reactions as human beings affected the development of our language?

Semantic malfunction is like the way we name people by stereotyping. Patterns of reactions are the sum total of ways we act in response to events, to words, or to symbols. Our reaction patterns are th einternal and most important residue of whatever years of education we received

  1. i wonder if your question

    pertains more to a malfunction

    of logic than semantics

    in humans

    one stimulus

    can produce

    manifold results

    the build-up

    of stimuli

    into a pattern

    of reaction

    does indeed

    create a residue

    in our thinking

    but it is more

    in how we

    put the meanings together

    than in the individual meanings

    semantic malfunction

    is a structural problem

    not a constituant one

    so i guess i'm saying

    it's anyone's guess

    how much fuzzy thinking

    has contributed

    to language development

    in humans

    but my suspicion is

    plenty
