Reification of linguistic signs, along with the erroneous view of the nature and function of language as a communication tool rather than the mode of existence of hu­mans as living (cognitive) systems, impedes scientific explanation of both language and lin­guistic signs.

The analogy with Husserl’s tripartite structure of the time-consciousness flow helps ...
