Language And Meaning with Some Philosophical Context

Abstract

Language is a means of communication, the meaningful signs, understanding through which communication is possible. Language is not like the logical constants; it evolves. In course of development of human society, the words acquire meaning because of human effort to give words the meaning. Language is a system of conventional signs and we have to learn the meanings of those signs in order to know language. In this paper I would like to focus what is the main function of language in Indian and Western Context?
