THE TERMINOLOGY OF PHILOSOPHY AND ITS EMERGENCE IN LINGUISTICS
Keywords:
terminology, philosophical terminology, history of philosophical terminology, linguistic terminology, evolution of terminology, philosophy of language.Abstract
Language and philosophy share a deep and intricate relationship, with the terminology of philosophy often influencing the development of linguistic theories and vice versa. This review article explores the historical and conceptual interplay between philosophy and linguistics, shedding light on how the language used in philosophical discourse has shaped linguistic inquiry and how linguistic insights have informed philosophical debates. The article traces the evolution of terminology in both fields, from ancient philosophical traditions to contemporary linguistic theories. It also discusses key concepts such as linguistic relativity, the philosophy of language, and the role of terminology in shaping our understanding of reality. By examining the interconnection between these two disciplines, this article underscores the enduring relevance of philosophy in the study of language and the profound impact of language on philosophical thought.
