Alfredo,
So …..
Exploring the open boundary markers between the organic, rhythmic patterning (organizing?), please and the indexical.
Then adding symbol-indices to the mix and also the notion of (values) as shared.
This generating what David refers to as a common emerging theme.

Hi all,
on the question whether there can be a language having one word, David brings the example:
"What? That!
Where? There!
When? Then!
Now--take away the beginnings and endings, the "wh~" and the "th~" and the
"~t", "~re", "~n". SING the result; that is, RISE to ask and FALL to answer:
a? a!
eh? eh!
e? e..."
I find it interesting that, in these examples, the rising and falling belong to a situational relation between two: RISE is an invitation to FALL and vice versa. It is the difference between the two what matters. And this difference seems to be a 'correlation' (if I were to use the term David has been using) of the very organic fact that actions have consequences and that it is this relation the minimal unit that living organisms are concerned about. If organisms (unlike stones) do register (encode) not just actions and not just consequences, but relations between actions and consequences, the feature of language that David is pointing at seems to be also a feature of organic life in general. I find this thought interesting if we are to think of language as an expression of biology/culture identity.
I am laying this thought here without much knowledge of linguistics, but I thought that this may resonate with what the discussion is unfolding, particularly the question on indexicals as per, for example, Greg's last comments. Does it?

The reason why I picked out icon/index/symbol of all the
many firstness/secondness/thirdnesses Peirce offers us is
that all the rest are found in Hegel and systematically
elaborated there. But not icon/index/symbol. As you know
Greg I am not one of those that think that The Phenomenology
is the only book Hegel wrote, so I will refer you to the
Science of Logic, chapter on the Concept (a.k.a. Notion).
