The term "[[discourse]]" is used by [[Lacan]] to emphasize the ''[[intersubjectivity|transindividual nature]]'' [[nature]] of '''[[language]]''', the fact that '''[[speech]]''' always implies another [[subjectanother]], an interlocutor. The '''[[unconscious]]''' is the "[[discourse|discourse of the Other]]", or the effect on the [[subject]] of [[speech]] that is addressed to that [[subject]] from elsewhere, by another [[subject]] (who has been [[memory|forgotten]]), by an [[scene|other scene]] or [[scene|psychic locality]]interlocutor.

He [[identifies ]] ''four'' types of [[discourse|social bonds]], four articulations of the [[symbolic order|symbolic network]] which regulates [[intersubjectivity|intersubjective relations]].
