Yes, Reed, it would be...in a phenomenological manner of speaking (which is
to say, I don't expect an answer from myself).

For Hegel, language is not mere communication but spiritual or intellectual
presence. In Hegel's words,
it is "the being-there or existence of spirit" (395). Simply put, language
is the outward expression
of inward thought. When I speak, I translate my inwardness into something
outer and real. I make
my thought present for my listener and also for myself. (from Hegel's Logic
of Desire, by Peter Kalkavage, http://www.radix.net/~joshua/hegel.htm)
