English term or phrase: to hook language onto the world
Greetings,

This is a famous idiom invented by Wittgenstein. See, for example,
http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1090492

It also has great implications for foreign language teaching as it's imperative that you get your students to hook the language they are learning onto the world so it doesn't stay in the classroom (and die there).

All the best, and many thanks,

Simon

dilin dünya ile ilişkisi


Explanation:
Dilin dünya ile ilişkisi nedir?

Bu daha çok, matematik derslerinde "Hocam bu gerçek hayatta ne işimize yarayacak?" sorusu gibi düşünülmeli. Hatta eğitimde kullanılacaksa aynen alınabilir. "Dil gerçek hayatta ne işe yarar?"

Dil ve gerçeklik Wittgenstein'ın temel felsefi soru(n)larından biridir ve ikinci kitabın çoğunda üzerinde durduğu konu budur. Bahsedilen deyim bu olmalı. Lakin 1:1 nasıl çevrilmiş bakamadım, kaynağım yok.

[Tam olarak nasıl çevrildiği önemli ise "felsefi soruşturmalar" kitabı Türkçe bulunabilir.]
