Going to try it soon, probably Spanish, (did Latin at school). From what I have heard the most important thing is wanting to speak with people in the other language, and then doing so.

But the very idea of scripture comes off as something ancient and dead.

Yeah but Heidegger died in 1976 and Wittgenstein in 51. It‘s not like the scriptures were chiseled in limestone or sth.

Thought becomes Object becomes Word transmits to Recipient as Word becomes Object becomes Thought. Why not Thought to thought? Pure abstractions. (Sorry f th uppercases)

Thought just don't become objects unless and until they attain a certain level of self-consciousness. Don't you agree?

Used it more as shortcut explanation not in its technical sense. Language is always misleading. Object is meant as visual decryption of the spoken word but it is also translated into picture in order to be concieved by the mind.

So thoughts (might?) become „objects“ as soon as they can latch on to a visual representation at hand.
