How may I respond to this post from philosophical investigations paragraps 200-315 thx
PI: 220-315
In this particular section of the Investigations we
see Wittgenstein, in line 232, again address one of the main issues
behind what he’s trying to explain about philosophy which is the
loss of understanding between one person or another because the way
we understand and use language is different from other people. In
this particular line, 232, Wittgenstein states that he cannot teach
his way of obeying rules to someone else because someone else may
have a different interpretation of how to obey rules and the
significance of the language behind rules but ultimately both
parties reach the same conclusions. Despite Wittgenstein saying
that everyone’s interpretation of language is different,
particularly in the realm of rules, everyone should reach the same
conclusion because if not everyone is reaching the same conclusion
then therefore there is no validity to language. If there is no
validity to language then it has no practical use for people and
therefore we would not have any understanding of the world and
everything in it.
The post presented describes the philosophy that is used to explain the loss of understanding between different individuals as per the manner in which language is used and understood by different persons. The article also indicates that the following of any direction or rules depends on the interpretation of obeying or following the rules and it largely depends on the way language is used or understood. When it comes to rules each person has a different understanding of the language but the main outcome will be to have a common understanding and if it is not present that the actual meaning of the language will be lost. The individuals cannot use the language in the absence of its validity and thus there will be no common understanding of the world.
The given passes mainly deal with the understanding of language by the different people for having better coordination and common understanding
