ABSTRACT

As a result of metaphysical prejudices, the pragmatic aspect of language is one-sidedly exaggerated, and speaking is reduced to some kind of acting. The language representation of facts and relationship between facts can be completely objective. The structures-in-depth are the same in all languages, although the means of expression may be different. It should be clear that noetic acts are directed to experiences transmitted by the neural system. The neural system on its turn receives information from the substantia reticularis. This complicated situation concerning the inner and outer systems is reflected in many languages. The languages themselves indicate in many forms the origin of their experience basis out of the three undersystems, which are united in the neural system. Language uses personification and metaphorical descriptions as expression of the noetic system. Language proves the biosemiotic thesis that analogous representation of lower systems into higher and vice versa leads to unified performance.
