Changes

Metalanguage is the technical term in linguistics for any form of language which is used to describe the properties of language.

Roman Jakobson includes the metalingual function in his list of the functions of language.<ref>Jakobson, 1960:25</ref>

In a clinical context, this means that there is no metalanguage of the transference, no point outside the transference from which it could be finally interpreted and 'liquidated'.
