Abstract
communicate with others, man needs some concepts to transfer to others with the help of his language. According to some linguists, language makes us human beings.
The relationship between word and meaning has always been discussed from the time of Aristotelian logics to today’s analytical philosophy and philosophy of language. Letters play a very important role in the man’s reasoning and speech, hence they cannot be neglected. If man could not perceive the meaning of the letters he could not think. The present article is an attempt to study the viewpoints of the linguists and literati on the side of the viewpoints of Imam Khomeini about the criterion of meaningfulness of letters and their meanings.
