What actually occurs in our minds when we use language with the intention of meaning something by it? What is the relation subsisting between thoughts, words, or sentences, and that which they refer to or mean? What relation must one fact (such as a sentence) have to another in order to be capable of being a symbol for that other? Using sentences so as to convey truth rather than falsehood?

BURNS NIGHT
25th January – tonight is Burn’s night. Robert Burns was born in Alloway, South Ayrshire two miles south of Ayr on the 25th January 1759, 253 years ago. I forgot to get the haggis in, so we’re having duck instead.
