But when come the replies, the gaps manifest themselves.
Or rather: There *are* often gaps in understanding in the mind of the
expresser, but the expresser is not aware of them until he/she
attempts to communicate that understanding.
No, what I mean is that the speaker understands perfectly. From his
perspective, there are *no* gaps. In his attempt to express what he has
in his mind, the expression comes out with gaps. The speaker notices
the glaring gaps because they're obvious. The subtle gaps get
overlooked because they're, ..., well, ..., subtle. But the speaker
understands perfectly what he *intends* to say, no gaps.
