Supposing truth is a thing it must have a origin somewhere, a point of Truth from which all other truths derive. If we suppose that truth is expressed in language, and that language points to a world "out there", this original point of truth must be the world itself. In other words, whatever exists out there is true, and language derives from it.
What is the process by which what is out there is captured into language? How can what exists be translated into a set of signs? What is the process by which meaning leaves the world of experience and enters into language, infusing it with sense? And why has the relationship between reality and representation been inverted, severing existence into two realities, an abstract world of ideas and a imperfect world of experience derived from it (when the opposite is clearly true since language wasnt handed down to us by gods but evolved from our experience of the world)?
