Cursive Words

Some words do not have exact absolute meanings - you know (or you think you know) what is meant by taking the context of the interaction and the information about the situation into account.
- The words good or bad are really good examples: What do we mean when we say that something is good?
  - Oxford Dictionary: “to be desired or approved of” or “having the required qualities; of a high standard.”
    - For the first definition: You need to have an idea about what I might desire or approve of. It is impossible to accurately know that in every situation.
    - For the second definition: Required qualities are always specific to any object you can think of.
- And what do we mean, when we say that someone is good?
  - Goodness means bringing about great benefit to individuals or whole groups.
    - How do we know if an influence is a beneficial? We have to know what is good for others. → circular dependency!
    - (side note: I think someone is being a good person in a given situation, if they are acting with the friendly intention, while also assuming the others would have the friendly intention and act accordingly as well.)
- Nothing can be globally good or bad, no person is good or evil in every situation.
I call them cursive words because I write them in cursive when I want to make it salient that no clear meaning can be assigned to these word.
