Dear Daria,

Yes, there is a point about that.

Han characters are used in China, Japan, Korea. Very complex relations between meaning and phonetics. They do not form propositions.  Very different Chinese "dialects" agree on the same written form. The non-smoking sign is a proposition.

Do they belong to a language, or makes using them for a message following a language a linguistic object?

Clearly, only these languages can be encoded with Han characters. Japan and Korea using a hybrid system, adding phonetic characters.

But I'd suggest to make clear the distinction of a Propositional Object, its constituents, and language.

Best,

Martin

Dear colleagues,
any sighes having meaning are Linguistic Objects, not only alphabetical but Egyptian too, cuneiform and even knots.
