[Platt] I don't know about primitive languages either, but I do know that the forms of intellect Pirsig mentions require definition, i.e., a subject ascribing meaning to an objective symbol, and thus within SOM. The subject-object construction may not be transparent, but it is certainly inferred. By contrast,"Quality cannot be defined."
