Deep Fissure between Word and Sentence

　　  TANAKA Akio

Now language has some algebraic postulations below.

Word consists of elements R₁. The element has proto-meaning.

Word’s meaning is generated by product(・) of the elements.

The product of elements is called primary meaning (R₁, ・).

Word is group.

Another word ( R₂, ・)is generated.

New word is generated by addition (＋) of the elements of two words.

The addition of elements is called secondary meaning (R₁, R₂, ・, + ).

New word is ring.

The upper group and ring are regarded as commutative.

Sentence consists of words T₁.

Sentence is generated by product of words (T₁, ・).

But sentence is seemed to be non-commutative, i.e.T₁T₂T₃ is not T₃T₂T₁. /I/ /read/ /book/ is not /book/ /read/ /I/. Word is expressed by / /.

I call the situation <deep fissure between word and sentence>.

This <fissure> is seemed to be relative with true-false argument of sentences.
