Later, this word was also used as a philosophical term by philosophers such as Aristotle, J. Locke and E. Kant. This term was introduced to linguistics in the 60s and 70s of the 20th century by linguists such as Ch. Peirce , R.Сarnap, Ch.Morris , L. Wittgenstein and was interpreted as a specific direction of linguistics.
