Abstract:
Language is often described as a mean of the representation of reality and the meditation between human beings for actions in reality. Furthermore, the language can emancipate from that function of representing and even communicating in fictions and literature or in linguistics. Therefor one can offer another viewpoint to the language, according to which the language should maintain an optimal degree of opacity rather than transparency. Thus the main function of language is to replace reality by an image of it, which should not correspond to reality exactly but more or less approximately and even fussy and foggy. Consequently, the main function of language is to create fictions and literature rather than representations. Furthermore, a very important, but only particular and borderline case is that of representing reality. However this particular case should not serve for researching and defining the language as a whole.
