Why language is not maximised

There are tons of feelings we cant explain.
There are things in our dreams we cant Explain.
There are things that are and are not objects that takes multiple words to convey in a verbal message.

There are 3 things you can do in this thread.
1: Challenge your mind to come up with things the dictionary does not explain.
2: Discuss and or challenge the product of #1.
3: Discuss the general awarness that our language is limited.

Most objects have a word
Stay away from adjective/noun combinations, like red horses, or big tables.
The Meteorologists Have 39 Names for Snow So do eskimoes, well not as many.

Here are some examples of wordless stuff I challenge you to add too.. Its kinda hard.

1: When an object has become faded, broken, irregulated, it is what?
"My headboard is _______"
2: Likewise, when an object is in good condition it is what?
"That table is ________"
3: Things is a very general word. There are different kind of things like object things, political things, adult things, ect. This is kind of a bad one but oh well. #3 it is. It just shows the generality of the word "things" and its limitation.
4: When anything, is not acting properly its ________
"The computer is ________.. My child is _________.. "Ect
5: When one chooses the wrong thing

Bah.. I'll see if anyone reads this far before I put in the 30 others. lol
