We have thus, in addition to our four previous ways in which words can mean, two new ways, namely the way of memory and the way of imagination.

When we understand a word, there is a reciprocal association between it and the images of what it "means." Images may cause us to use words which mean them, and these words, heard or read, may in turn cause the appropriate images.

'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you CAN make words mean so many different things.'

'I meant by "impenetrability" that we've had enough of that subject, and it would be just as well if you'd mention what you mean to do next, as I suppose you don't mean to stop here all the rest of your life.'

You mean when money is not wanted, but allowed to lie?

Well, there is another question: By friends and enemies do we mean those who are so really, or only in seeming?

I consider that that person is over-described.
