Abstract

In this paper, first of all, a short introduction of entrance of language into philosophical and subsequently philosophy of science issues is presented. Then, it will be shown that the scientific activity is a collaborative activity which is based on interpretation and communication and so it provides Davidson’s conditions. In third part, the formation of the language of science, as a social activity which provides Davidson’s conditions, in the context of a natural language will be investigated.
