Relativity and language

Is language broken because built on absolute space in a relative universe

That is to say; there is nothing without other things. That is to say; there is no “thing-in-itself.” ~ Nietzsche

Wittgenstein speculates that objects do not exist in the absolute but only in a relative way.

Our language is based on absolute space, but we discovered that space is relative, therefore is our language “broken”?
