 Re: it reaches in any particular direction
It reaches in any particular direction may mean that the old sense of the word 'mountain' (it) is no longer valid. It can have a new sense altogether and this may be something that points towards the sky or something else entirely different.
Lez think like this. Take the word mouse.
It meant a burrowing cheese-loving lovely animal that outflanks Toms in their chase.
But now, with computers, it is also a peripheral device.
Words don't stay unchanged. They float on an ocean of change, wating for the next wave to wash its meaning with a new one. |
