I can go with this or disagree...

Our current language can describe any of this and "words allow us to understand ourselves". Sure, we might be missing words, but we can find them. Words are important but have no power without the meaning that leads to them. The meaning must come first. The women knew they were being harassed. It just took a little more context, one more word, to complete the reference to what they already understood. ... Yeah, that added power.

Why discuss philosophy and words when they don't even seem to teach critical thinking anymore?

People don't even seem to pay attention to the meaning of words. There is so so much revealed in them that no one seems to see.

The funny thing is that the most important word of all has been stolen from us. What would be the oldest, most basic, most powerful, and important thought a person has? It's their survival instinct. Have you ever heard of a word for it... even in French? No, because though there is a word for it, it was stolen. If you have that word, you have the concept and you can then see it in yourself and you could see it in others and you could see the power of our most basic instinctive drive expressed in everything around you. Sew... I guess I'm agreeing with you. What a concept.
