The problem of language by Wittgenstein

Wittgenstein believed that language is the central question of philosophy, and that philosophical problems arise from misunderstandings of logic and linguistic grammar. As a result, he believed that the primary duty of philosophy is to critique and study language. In his Tractatus and later works, Wittgenstein established the grounds and conditions for any linguistic expression to be considered meaningful. According to Wittgenstein, the only meaningful language is that which contains an image of the external world.
