      Are you suggesting that it is somehow possible to use context to understand what others are saying?

          Through what mechanism is that apparent? Inference? Surely I am not responsible for whatever random ideas pop into your head

              I’m glad we are both in complete agreement that it is definitely impossible for any meaning to be conveyed other than a literal interpretation of the exact words being used.

              Your contribution to this discussion has been very valuable and I’m sure everyone is looking forward to hearing more from you
