A four-step method for resolving confusions about meaning.https://meaningness.com/finding-complete-stance …
Good! I take it that for practical purposes, definitions can only be vague, and are only sometimes useful. (They can be very useful in some situations, of course!) This page gets as close to a definition as I intend to (which is not very close):https://meaningness.com/meaningness-first-explanation …

Here you seem to be confusing meaning with truth. We can't access truth, but it's not difficult to define meaning for practical purposes. Something like 'experienced associative connections' would do. Johnson's 'The Meaning of the Body' (2007) explains that perspective.

Associative connections are not 'just semantics', either. Those connections can provide inspiration, and give us more resources with which to develop more adequate concepts and thus beliefs in new situations. The more meaning the better.
