Words form the basis of human thinking. During its history, humankind has been using words without being aware of what words are, what the process of thinking in words looks like, and what its pitfalls are. As a result, sometimes we use meaningless words to make meaningless sentences which build up meaningless theories (in a good case), but which (in a bad case) can also build up theories that ruin the lives of millions of people.
This is not without consequences: the history of humankind is a sequence of unending plots, genocides, bloody wars, and economic crises. While the development of sciences soars uninterruptedly, human studies are struggling in the dust like a bird without wings. Why? Because of words. Or more precisely, because there is an undiscovered, mysterious world where words are rooted and through and in which they live. Is there a way out?
