Contemporary analytical philosophy, from formal language to ordinary language

Abstract

Most Analysts philosophers confirm that the mastery of traditional philosophical problems resulted from our misunderstanding of the language and its internal logic, and that’s what Russel evidenced it in the theory of   "Description" whose importance lies in that it reflects a new philosophical language known by its precision and clarity of expressing issues and listing results. However, Wittgenstein philosophy is divided into two theories, each one expresses a different concept and role of the language. In   the theory of logical reasoning of the world, its role is limited just to how world’s events are expressed. As for the theory of   "linguistics games," it is an ordinary language that leads to the function of communication. The theory of   "verbal action “, according to John Austin, studied just the ordinary language, and looking for the relationship of meanings by pronunciation, which resulted in the existence of things. Till the coming of John Searle who gave this theory new dimensions especially when he linked the verbal act with the sociolinguistic dimension.
