Wittgenstein (1889-1951):
(Language philosophy and language teaching, MET 12/3 2003) …the meaning of a word is its use, not what it denotes. Language not only describes things: it also does things. Language is a tool box which enables us to do things: it is not just a device for describing things. … Language can also be interpreted as a collection of games. Games have rules. To play language games, we need to know and follow the appropriate rules too. These rules stem from life, and the use of language is interwoven with the life of language-users. We master language when we are involved with the life which underpins it.
