Have you ever thought of this

[Black Water Park]

Maybe explaining it like this.

What if you tell a chinese man to look at the cow. Him not understanding good english sees the horse but thinks of the word cow. From than on he will precieve the english word cow as what we see as a horse...

but regardless it is still a cow (whatever it is to be 'cow'), no matter what he thinks, i dunno... i guess "reality" is completely independent from us no matter what.
i really love disscusions like this
