Abstract

Aristotle was probably one of the first who noted the complex structure of language in his treatise «Categories», stating that what appears simple is in fact the result of brainwork. However, based on the result alone, it is impossible to reconstruct the entire complex structure of language production. Assuming words as units of meaning, it is impossible to reconstruct meaning solely by manipulating words in a subjectless space. Therefore, modeling language requires constructive and substrative foundations of a different quality than those found in contemporary machines.
