Abstract

In this text we explore the role of fuzziness and essential properties in language acquisition. We define a context and its essential properties via language games and we analyze some classical issues in philosophy of language from the point of view of descriptivism, but with fuzzy description clusters. After our analysis, we propose a complex-valued system capable of reasoning with contextually indistinguishable elements. We leave the full formalization of this system for future research.

Keywords

language acquisition; fuzzy sets; indistinguishable set members; contextualism; necessary properties
