Philosophical symbolic language vs Natural languages

In my symbolic system, every symbol (except one that is neutral) does have an ethical meaning, directly or indirectly related to the reject of violence. In English (or another language), if we consider the sentence “Non-violence is my religion”, the single letters included in this sentence taken separately do not express any ethical meaning. If I say in English “I persevere in my hobbies”, you can’t see any reject of violence nor opposing positive spiritual effort in this sentence. If I translate the same sentence in my symbolic language, the reject of violence and opposing spiritual effort are present within the personal pronoun “I”, the verb “persevere plus in” and the noun “hobbies” :

This is the back translation of this symbolic sentence :

Hobbies – to persevere in – Agent Ego (“I”)

Within the symbolic group “hobbies” we can notice : the simple circle (expressing anxiety, persecutions and absolutization of results) and the point (standing for the spiritual opposing force); within the sixth verbal acceptation of the temporal fusion (signalled by the hexagon) we can notice the circle and the point in virtual position (expressing respectively “adult despotic tyranny” and “effort of temporal preservation of positive infant qualities in adulthood”). Within the symbolic group of the Agent Ego, there are important oppositions to consider : the broken slash plus X is the symbolic group expressing the opposition exerted by human reason to negative ideologies coming from family and society (especially materialism and justification of violence); the two double arrows placed in operative position stand for two different kinds of opposition between “good” and “evil” : the first one expresses a process of stabilization following the deconstruction of negative ideologies performed by the human reason (made up of up arrow standing for “ascensional spiritual movement” and down arrow standing for “gravitational downward materialistic force”) whereas the second one expresses the process whereby the positive universal principles (resulting from the stabilization process) are applied to the phenomenic reality (here the up arrow stands for “time” and the down arrow for “space”); in both double arrows, the single up and down arrows are respectively positive and negative symbols. Incidentally, “time” plus “space” in the second double arrow forms the concept of “phenomenon /phenomenic reality” and so, as a process, this double arrow is translated as “phenomenization”.

The mistake that many people make when dealing with my symbolic language is comparing my language with natural languages. They do have different purposes because they arise from different needs: natural languages exist because people need to interact in everyday life contexts; my symbolic language exists only and exclusively because I feel the need to express the reject of violence and to emphasise the role of the human spirit in the fight against evil. The expression “reject of evil ” may also be replaced by “non violent intellectual protest against evil”. Remarkably, this need to express the reject of violence is evidently more powerful than any piece of language expressed in a historical natural language for the reasons I explained : 1) we do not find single letters expressing an ethical meaning recalling the concept of non-violence; 2) the message of non violence is not included in every word and in every sentence. But these two points apply to my symbolic language. I want to point out that there is no competition between natural languages and my symbolic language. They have completely different purposes because they do arise from completely different needs.

In addition, it must be said that my philosophical symbolic language does not have a phonological system. As a result, it can only be written and never be spoken. Each piece of writing can be commented, but any comment is not intended as a feedback to that piece of writing but as a thought that must be considered separately. The fact that this symbolic language is never used in everyday life communication can be realised in the absence of interrogative forms along with the exclusive presence of the third singular and plural persons paired with impersonal expressions. Incidentally, the personal pronoun “I” is symbolically expressed as “the agent part of the Ego”. In light of this, following the literal symbolic translation, “I” is a third person subject. Due to the emphasis on the categorical reject of violence, the personal pronoun “I” is very often used with the verbal tense “Plenitudo temporis aeterni”, so as to highlight the hypercategorical refusal of violence that goes beyond the earthly world because it challenges the neverending time before and after life :

Back translation : hobbies – conceptual full stop – to persevere in – neverending past – and – neverending future – to be in (temporal meaning) – Agent Ego

Brief overview of the verbal tenses in Symbolic Grammar II

In this short video, I will provide you with a very brief picture about verbal tenses in Symbolic Grammar II. In the next updates, I will explain the verbal structure underpinning the various verbal tenses :

Here follows the back translation of each symbolic sentence. In order to have a general idea about the verbal structures, you can stop the video and look through the following explanation. All the elements are literally translated, reading the symbolic sentences from left to right.

First sentence (Simple present):

Crimes – to commit (applicative function) – human beings

Second sentence (Present perfect) :

Genitorial body – to generate (applicative function) – someone (those) – conceptual full stop – to shadow (applicative function) – childhood (temporal specification) – to be in (spatial meaning) – human beings

Third sentence (Historic Present Perfect) :

Crimes – Conceptual full stop – to commit (applicative function) – Planet Earth (spatial specification) – to be in (temporal meaning) – human beings

Fourth sentence (Simple past) :

Crimes – conceptual full stop – to commit (applicative function) – the past (temporal specification) – to be in (temporal meaning) – human beings

Decomposition of the element “the past” : symbol of moral negativity + hyphen + symbol of time

Fifth sentence (Simple future) :

Crimes – conceptual full stop – to commit (applicative function) – the future (temporal specification) – to be in (temporal meaning) – human beings

Decomposition of the element “the future” : symbol of mental projection + hyphen + symbol of time

Sixth sentence (Infinite past and future) :

Infinite past – Discontinuous conjunction “and” – Infinite future (both elements joined together by the conjunction “and” form the temporal specification) – to be in (temporal meaning) – the universe

Decomposition of the element “Infinite past” : symbol of universal moral negativity + hyphen + symbol of time + operative function + symbol of emphatic function (the Infinite past is interpreted as an emphatic form of the simple past)

Decomposition of the element “Infinite future” : symbol of mental projection + hyphen + symbol of time + operative function + symbol of emphatic function (the Infinite future is interpreted as an emphatic form of the simple future)

Seventh sentence (Plenitudo temporis aeterni) :

Hobbies (Grammar One compound) – conceptual full stop – to persevere in (applicative function) – Infinite past – Discontinuous conjunction “and” – Infinite future (both elements joined together by the conjunction “and” form the temporal specification) – to be in (temporal meaning) – I

Decomposition of the Grammar One compound “hobbies” : symbol of ethical monad – operative function – symbol of emphatic function

The decompositions of the infinite past and future have already been illustrated.

Decomposition of the subject pronoun “I” (Grammar One compound standing for the agent part of the Ego) :

Symbol of universal moral negativity – symbol of innate spirit (and also human reason) – operative function – operative function of ethical stabilization (first double arrow) – operative function – operative function of “putting into practice in a concrete everyday life context” (second double arrow)

The Plenitudo temporis aeterni refers to “intentionality” rather than “action”. By stating that “I persevere in my hobbies in the infinite past and future” I do not logically mean that I have always persevered in my hobbies before my life and I will continue to do so forever after my life”. Instead, the sentence has the following meaning : in my earthly life I hypercategorically conform to an ethical principle according to which “I must always persevere in my hobbies”. The PTA (Plenitudo temporis aeterni) differs from the simple sum of infinite past and future (solely involving the elliptical verb “to be”).

The main features of Symbolic Grammar Two

Grammar II is a revolutionary system of rules characterized by original grammatical categories forming its basis. Here follows a list of the main revolutionary aspects :

1) The category “verb” is called “applicative function” and is made up of two basic components : “applicative” and “applicative medium”; the former indicates that there is a transformation whereas the latter specifies the kind of transformation; the verbal system includes some revolutionary tenses, such as the stunning “plenitudo temporis aeterni”;

2) The category “clause” (including the verb “to be”, the stative verbs but not the characterization function) is called “verbal function”, which generally consists of three components : “the applied element” (object), “the applicative function” (verb) and “the applier” (subject);

3) Subordinates are interpreted as complementary sentences of the main clauses; it is the symbol located at the top right of the characterization symbol to define the kind of subordinate; nonetheless, not all the complementary functions are subordinates;

4) The full stop does not exist. Each symbolic sentence is introduced by a beginning marker and closed by an end marker;

5) The grammatical system includes a series of divisor devices : the characterization function (plus its emphasis) and the conceptual full stop (plus its two emphasises); the conceptual full stop is a key device in the formation of relative clauses;

6) Modal verbs are seen as verbal modifiers along with the negation “not” and other symbolic devices;

7) There is a level going beyond the verbal one, i.e. the so – called “macro – verbal”. The “macro – verbality” is a highly important grammatical innovation;

8) Adverbs are etymologically interpreted as additional verbal information and this is clearly supported from the graphic point of view;

9) Adjectives are represented in different ways, from the graphic point of view, according to whether they are “predicate” or “descriptive”; possessive adjectives may either appear explicitly (through an intermediate function) or be elliptical (marked in bold within the treatise);

10) There are different kinds of verb “to be” : “to be in (temporal)”; “to be in (spatial)”; “to be (universal)”; “to be (particular)”; “to be (opinion level)”; “to be (divine)”; “to mean”;

11) Comparatives and superlatives are formed thanks to nominalized forms of the predicate adjective;

12) There are various devices used to avoid repetition of information.
