Sometimes, words just fail to describe some things. It is quite undeniable that while language was created to convey information, some situations and objects can't help but to slip between the cracks. This is true in many other examples: Math's inability to quantify all of science, psychology's inability to catalog all of humans' thoughts.
Yet, such information still has to be transfered sometimes, for the sake for the recipient, or the source. We exist in a world where knowledge is power. Wars are won from intelligence, crime are solved upon evidences.
And whenever we encounter these situations, we learn to adapt, and create within the language, a way to describe this particular situation that did not arise in the past.
Yet some situations, just never get the right words for them. Not because there isn't one suitable, just that we never feel that it is personal enough.
It is the man that fails the words, not the words that fail the man.
