Abstract

43. Man kann für eine grosse Klasse von Fallen der Benützung des Wortes ‘Bedeutung’—wenn auch nicht für alle Fälle seiner Benützung—dieses Wort so erklären: Die Bedeutung eines Wortes ist sein Gebrauch in der Sprache.43. For a large class of cases—though not for all—in which we employ the word ‘meaning’ it can be defined thus: the meaning of a word is its use in the language
