Reality Maintaining Words 

The set of words which (established and) maintain reality.
"Could we change reality by suppressing, hiding, or extricating the Reality Maintaining Words?", asked Professor Spot Tricks. "How many RMWs are there anyway?" Asked Joe. "How many RMWs do you estimate there are", asked Dick. "How many RMWs do you estimate exist", asked Bernd. The instructor commended Bernd because "exist" is concise, whereas "there are" is prolix, and clarified that listing all the RMWs would exact mountains of time, so it is more likely that only an estimate, not a specific number, could be achieved. Then she asked the students, "And could we change reality by promoting the use of a different set of words?" "Yes", said most students. "What would you call those words?" "Reality Correcting Words", said Sally.
