| Citazioni | There is a special method for the expression of relations [...] This is the method of 'concord' or of like signaling. It is based upon the same principle as the password or label. Not that sound-echo [...] is necessary to concord, though in its most typical and original forms concord is nearly always accompanied by sound repetition [...] words (elements) that belong together, [...] are outwardly marked by the same or functionally equivalent affixes. Psychologically the methods of sequence and accent lie at the opposite pole to that of concord. Where they are all for implication [...] concord is impatient of the least ambiguity but must have its well-certificated tags at every turn. Concord tends to dispense with order. |
