| Jan 21, 2021 at 19:34 | comment | added | Christopher | @chasly - supports Monica, no, it's not venting. Your unconscious mind makes 20,000 calculations per second on average and you are only aware of less than .0001% of them. If you think of subliminal advertising, the advertiser is saying one thing while tapping into your subconscious to deliver the 'real' message...but it does not have to be risque or humorous, as double entendres and puns do. I'm looking for the equivalent term to puns and double entendres that share multiple 'wisdoms' at the same time depending on how the sentence is written. The reader does not consciously recognize it. | |
| Jan 21, 2021 at 19:29 | comment | added | Christopher | @Mitch - yes, pun is what I'm looking for, if humor is my aim. But I'm looking for the same thing regarding wisdom...not risque. | |
| Jan 20, 2021 at 20:18 | comment | added | chasly - supports Monica | " ... how can interpreters be expected to get both intentions?" - Is this whole question simply a way of venting your feelings? If not, what precisely are you asking us to do? | |
