Skirbekk I 142f
Linguistic expressions/Tarski:
linguistic expressions are physical objects.
Proposition: a proposition is an ideal object.
Truth: truth is applicable only in respect of a particular language.
Truth semantically: semantic truth is fundamentally different from satisfaction, designation, definition.
>Satisfaction, >Designation, >Definitions.
Mathematics: provability and truth often fall apart.
>Provability, >Truth.
We need a metalanguage because the object language must not contain the truth predicate ((s) because of possible paradoxes).(1)
>Paradoxes, >Metalanguage, >Levels.


1. A.Tarski, „Die semantische Konzeption der Wahrheit und die Grundlagen der Semantik“ (1944) in: G. Skirbekk (ed.) Wahrheitstheorien, Frankfurt 1996
