So you shouldn’t want anything?

When I want to know the general meaning of a word, I look it up in a dictionary.....

The meaning of words is understood through experience.

meaning
words
experience
context
something
starts

Someone said so.

What he wanted to say is to infer and understand the meaning of a word from the context in which it is actually used.

This is my interpretation, so it may not be accurate, but the infant who begins to learn the language learns it in that way.

Also, I know that when discussing an abstract discussion using only words, it is essential to share the definition of the words to be used by everyone who discusses it.

Otherwise, it often happens that the people discussing the terms used in the discussion had different interpretations.

The discussion shouldn’t fit.

Normally, a word does not start something, and a word is born after something starts.

So if we don’t know the context in which a word is used, we won’t understand it.

However, there are books that explain the meaning of words in a general and neutral way. It’s like a manual explaining the words.

That is a dictionary. You know.

When I want to know the general meaning of a word, I look it up in a dictionary.

Of course, if you have no experience of specific situations, you will not understand it even if you read only the meaning of the word, and the meaning of the word differs depending on the dictionary.

So, look up the meaning of words in multiple dictionaries. Still, the dictionary’s explanation is helpful, but often not a solution.

In other words, words do not solve anything.

For example, I looked up the word “good” in a dictionary.

“Good” seems to meet what is desired.

If someone wants something and you’re happy with it, then you’re good.

Specific examples are good deeds, good ideas, good results, and so on.

You have to do good to meet someone’s wishes.

So you shouldn’t want anything?

Unfortunately, that’s right. It may be good for you to act to meet your own wishes, but not for someone.

Then I don’t have to be a good person.
