Eww, how mundane. You only cared about semantics.(Although it could be said that signifigance of definitions is just a proxy for the existance of axioms).
Consider
There are several meanings for 'BLUE' ,that doesn't mean that there is a truth behind each meaning;for instance,the word "unicorn" is in your dictionnary,still there is no 'unicorn' in the real world;what I meant is what meaning of BLUE is true in our real world;the meanings of words are just there to express our thoughts and in no account they can express what is true or untrue.
There are several meanings for 'IMPORTANT' ,that doesn't mean that there is a truth behind each meaning;for instance,the word "unicorn" is in your dictionnary,still there is no 'unicorn' in the real world;what I meant is what meaning of IMPORTANT is true in our real world;the meanings of words are just there to express our thoughts and in no account they can express what is true or untrue.
There are several meanings for 'BEAUTIFUL' ,that doesn't mean that there is a truth behind each meaning;for instance,the word "unicorn" is in your dictionnary,still there is no 'unicorn' in the real world;what I meant is what meaning of BEAUTIFUL is true in our real world;the meanings of words are just there to express our thoughts and in no account they can express what is true or untrue.
But in reading some of you other responses on this thread I beleive your response to me was diengenuous.
