ReplyDelete(definition, articulation, designation, derivation) are closely linked
because they presuppose each other, since
the moment when together with the verb passes the threshold
the existence of the sign, But the actual origin of languages
the movement varies as the direction and precision:
starting with the initial symbols of the imagination of the people (according to
the countries in which they live, the conditions of their existence, their
the feelings and passions of practical life) is a derivation,
changing together with the people and explaining, of course, in addition to
the diversity of languages, the relative instability of each. In
some point of this derivation, and within individual language people
have at their disposal a totality of words, names
nouns, articulated one with the other and dismembering their
representations; but this analysis is so imperfect, it allows
so many inaccuracies and so much overlap, that in relation to one
the same concepts people use different words and
form different sentences: their reflection is not
error-free. Between designation and derivation multiply shifts
imagination; between articulation and attributiveness apply
error reflection. Therefore, the horizon of language, can be
infinitely remote, projected the idea of a universal language, in
the meaning of the words in the expression of ideas would be
sufficiently clearly fixed, sufficiently well substantiated, with
sufficient evidence of recognized in order that the reflection could
would clearly see the truth of any proposal --
through this language, "the peasants could better judge the truth
things than now it is there for philosophers"
