I found intention and context to be the most interesting and important concepts when it comes to language and meaning because it makes the most sense. Intention is one of the most important parts of communicating and the use of language. When reading, leaving the meaning up to interpretation by the reader seems to be counterproductive as it leaves many with more confusion rather than clarity in an answer, after all this is why we choose to read isn’t it? We search for an answer or a satisfaction to our curiosity and without direction this can’t be achieved. And with context, language has no meaning. There is no ground to stand on or point in space to start without some sort pre-existing viewpoint, biased or unbiased, objective or subjective
