=====Bar=====
It is impossible to establish a stable one-to-one link between [[signifier]]s and [[signified]]s, and [[Lacan]] symbolizes this by inscribing a [[bar]] between them in the [[Saussurean algorithm]].
=====Point de capiton=====
The [[signified]] slips and slides under the [[bar]] of the [[Saussurean algorithm]] in a continuous movement, a movement which is only temporarily detained by the ''[[points de capiton]]''.<ref>{{E}} p.154</ref>
=====Psychosis=====
When there are not enough ''[[points de capiton]]'', as is in the case in [[psychosis]], the slippery movement of [[signification]] is endless, and stable meanings dissolve altogether.
