Excessive fact/Wittgenstein: (Philosophical Investigations/PI § 192): Kripke: straightforward solution: finding an excessive fact: this should clearly define as a finite fact the potentially infinite future uses of a sign. - That is impossible. >Rules, >Rule following, >Kripkenstein.

Sign/Symbol/Wittgenstein: a sign can be nonsensical. - A symbol cannot be nonsensical. - Also tone and expression are part of the symbol. - Incomplete symbol: E.g. "I'm hungry" written on the blackboard. >Symbols, >Incomplete symbols.

Definition/Symptom/Wittgenstein: a phenomenon that occurs according to experience with the phenomenon together, which is our defining criterion. - E.g. Symptoms: sore throat. - Criteria: Angina bacillus. - The fluctuation of grammar between the two makes it seem as if there were only symptoms. - Meaning: is not only secured by shared occurrence (like a symptom). - Instead: we need the method of verification. >Definition, >Symptom, >Criteria.
