- Title
CHAPTER 1: Wittgenstein's "Language-Games".
- Abstract
The article presents the author's views on Austrian-British philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein's revolutionary approach to the philosophy of language through language games. His idea was that linguistic meaning is a function of the ways human beings communicate and interact through social activities. Wittgenstein developed an understanding of human language, which focuses on giving and taking linguistic activity within standard moves and patterns and creative innovations.
