Cora Diamond: Realism and The Realistic Spirit

Cora Diamond: Realism and The Realistic Spirit
notes p.59

Berkeley on misunderstandings about language:

1. when language is not being used to communicate information about particular matters in the world as we know it in experience, it is used to communicate information about something else...

2. when we can follow a bit of language, we take it that we must have in our mind an idea of what it is the words we understand stand for.
