'Language is a monstrosity past a certain lack of embodiment.' In Lacanian terms, 'discourse' (justification) is caught between an impossibility and an inability; I cannot (impossible) express the truth of my desire at the place of the other; the other cannot (inability) receive it. A prior needs to be established, and made contact with, an anchor point, body, 'process', mutuality etc. to have a chance at a 'decent misunderstanding'.
