French term or phrase: le fait amplecte
En somme, il semble bien que la langue française se soit constitué deux taxièmes plus fins que l’antique taxième latin de négation; l’un, le discordantiel, qui marque une inadequation du fait qu’il aplecte avec le milieu; l’autre, le forclusif, qui indique que le fait amplecte est exclu du monde accepté par le locuteur.”
