Communication depends to a great degree on shared meanings of constructs. For instance, the notion of chaos - may be differently interpreted in literal sense as noise than it would be in the context of science of complexity. Chaotic systems may not necessarily be same as 'noisy systems.' Similarly chaordic systems may not necessarily be same as 'noisy systems.' This is where the notion of language as a guide of 'meaning' breaks down. In any language (in this instance English language), the same word may have many different connotations depending upon the theoretical and literal context within which that word is used.

For more on complex systems, chaotic systems and chaordic systems, the following web page provides some relevant pointers:
