Meh...
Evidently you've run out of bullshit to say...
Adios!
Look in the mirror. All the things you've said during this interaction cannot possibly be true at the same time and from the same perspective:
1. All thought/belief is meaningful to the thinking/believing creature.
2. All language is meaningful.
3. If "grobmunf" is a part of a correlation you've drawn between it and something else, then it is meaningful
4. If "grobmunf" is not part of a plurality of thinking/believing creatures' correlation(s), then it is not language.
Grobmunf is a word that I have invented to express a thought. By rule #1 it is meaningful.
Nobody else understands what 'grobmunf' means so by rule #4 it is not language.
So 'grobmunf' is meaningful but it is not language?
The thread is called "Is It Possible To Think Without Language?" The answer is "Yes".
