You know there is a field of philosophy that study languages and meta-languages. It is now tightly tied to linguistic (maybe because of Noam Chomsky) but you have still logicians who publish in philosophical papers on this subject.
Not my cup of tea, but worth taking a look at.
- WHA8m 4y agoYes I know. No one likes these guys /s I agree. As I've just stated in another comment, it's hard to say something with substance about philosophy in general. There are just a lot of different fields with individual axioms and scientific methods. That said, if these 'languages and meta-languages' fields would have found something viable (usage and usability), eg. a good tool to use, we would already use it.
- orwin 4y agoI think they did, i've read an article about that with my previous job, when i was mostly working with EU and universities: they created a meta-language to convey ideas fast between scientists of different fields and talking different languages, but with a common culture. I dont' have the paper but i found this [0] which might refer to the paper i read.
