(a beginning)
To speak in words
(philosophically)
we must speak about words.
"Word" is a word.
"Philosophy" is a word.
Words are slippery and misleading.
We must speak about words,
and about their slipperiness
in slippery deceitful words.
How are they slippery?
We loose our footing on them.
Because we naturally make sense of what someone says, we change contexts without us having any awareness thereof.
When I speak of this salt-shaker in front of me we are on solid ground, It is made of glass, bullet-shaped, with red bands around it and a red plastic cap. Soon it will need to be refilled?
"Is the salt damp?"
"No. I live in a dry area."
Concrete nouns are not the philosophical problem.
Do we have to talk about words?
Only if we talk in words.
