N2  - When the language of the encounter becomes the language of the couple, creating an illusion of linguistic fusion that masks the complexity of individual histories, questions arise as to the fate of the partners’ “other language(s)”.

The authors aim to clarify and elaborate on the psychodynamic consequences of these particular configurations at both conjugal and familial levels.
