<strong>Hermeneutical disarmament</strong>

"_Hermeneutical disarmament is the process by which a person is rendered less able to understand or communicate experiences, ideas, and other phenomena as a result of semantic change to the linguistic resources that could previously have been deployed for these purposes._"

Robert Morgan, Hermeneutical disarmament, The Philosophical Quarterly, 2024;, pqae046, doi.org/10.1093/pq/pqae046
