In many ways, how we communicate words to each other matter. Especially the words we use to describe periods of history, or moments in time. Take "The Enlightment" or "The Renaissance" - these words are now loaded with history itself (get it) and that means we can't use it collectively to describe another period. They start to form an identity on its own that we can't unsubscribe to mimetically
