Abstract

This article identifies some situations of linguistic ambiguities and how general logic tries to solve them and it analyzes the influence it can have in particular situations. Since the topic is vast, we stopped at the ambiguities of language caused by identity. First, the attempt to solve the problem was the enunciation of the laws of logic, namely the principle of identity, and we followed its limits. There are analyzed three aspects emphasizing the degree of remaining ambiguity: the relationship between intension and extension, vague terms, and symbolical-metaphorical thinking. Each of the examples given accentuated the limits of classical logic in the face of the natural language ambiguity problems. Ambiguous situations do not only have effects on logical or communicative levels; we also showed the impact on the fields of psycho-social interventions: therapy, counseling, and education.
