Words fail us, but language should not

BAYANGGUDAW NOTES. 24 DEC 2016. SAT. N1.
Words fail us, but language should not.
I AM an incorrigible, non-confessing romantic in terms of human language.
I cannot yet understand the language of the angels and the universe and other non-human entities and so let it be that the scope and limitation of what I talk about is human language.
My idea of 'human language' is an approximation too, as I always fail to understand what this Trumpism thing about 'unpresidented' is all about.
Or his idea, Trump's, of 'half-blind trust' and not 'blind trust' in terms of managing his billions so that he will not be accused of dipping his fingers in the cookie jar.
Today, I woke up before the sun woke up--it wakes up so late each day during the winter time--and I tried to look at the meaning of a word at the Webster's site, and this is what it told me.
My evidence is in this screen grab retrieved today, and today only.
