what does "is chanced but not forced by" something, mean in the below context

The sources (Montaigne, Alpert, Cavell) are authoritative and this question deserves reflection rather than closure or dismissal. Let me construct a justifiable chain of reasoning for this use.

Chance = to risk something

Cambridge Dictionary

Risk = : possibility of loss or injury

Merriam Webster

Although risk is usually used to refer to unwelcome possibilities, the key aspect here is that it refers to possibility. To chance something is to expose it to various possibilities. Not all these possibilities are necessarily bad. For example, when gambling, we may “chance our luck” on the throw of the dice.

Hence, if our minds are chanced by language, they are exposed to various possibilities (of meaning, connotation, ways of thought, ways of expression etc) by the language we use and the restrictive ways language influences our understanding and its developmemt (our epidemiological processes).
