'"meaning structure 1" and "meaning structure 2" may not be the same. ...The codes of encoding and decoding may not be perfectly the symmetrical. The degrees of symmetry--that is, the degrees of 'understanding' and 'misunderstanding' in the communicative exchange--depend on the degrees of symmetry/asymmetry established between the positions of the ...encoder-producer and decoder-receiver.' (S. Hall "encoding, decoding")
