Citazioni

A language is interpreted as a system of meanings, accompanied by forms through which the meanings can be realized [...] This puts the forms of a language in a different perspective: as means to an end, rather than as an end in themselves. There is in fact a technical term which can be used for this kind of grammar: it has been referred to as ʻsynesisʼ. (p.XIV)
