Explanation:

To complete the "This means" section, we analyze the line and its significance:

Step 1: Understand the Line

The quoted line is “They seemed far closer then when their names had stood between myself”. (Note: There may be a typo; likely “between myself and them” or similar. The key is the relationship between names and distance.)

Step 2: Interpret the Line

Names create a barrier (literal or conceptual) between the speaker and the animals. Removing names (unnaming) eliminates that barrier, making the animals feel “far closer” emotionally or existentially.

Filled “This means” Section:

This means that the act of “unnaming” the animals dissolved the artificial distance created by language (their names). Without names, the speaker feels a deeper, more immediate connection to the animals, as labels no longer separate her from them.

(If you need to fit it into the handwritten space, simplify: “This means unnaming removed the distance names created—without labels, the speaker felt closer to the animals, connecting more deeply.”)
