when can we talk about a "house" or a "mansion" or a "shed"? the same can be said about verbs, in all the world languages: when should we stop saying "walk" and start saying "run"? the same happens, of course, with adjectives: when must we stop saying "yellow" and start saying "orange", or stop defining as "black" and start saying "white", or "rich" and "poor", "entrepreneur" and "worker", "civilized" and "primitive", "man" and "animal", "beast" and "sovereign", "christian" and "pagan", or "beautiful" and start saying "ugly", or "bad" and start saying "good", or "truth" and start saying "false", "determined" and "free"? or "in" and "out", "here" and "there", "now" and "then", "past" and "present" and "future" and "eternal"? not only are the topological differences between the words relevant here, but the differentials between what is signified is also covered by différance. deferral also comes into play, as the words that occur following "house" or "white" in any expression will revise the meaning of that word, sometimes dramatically so. this is true not only with syntagmatic succession in relation with paradigmatic simultaneity, but also, in a broader sense, between diachronic succession in history related with synchronic simultaneity inside a "system of distinct signs".
