Donald Davidson has claimed that there is no such thing as language, if language is understood as most philosophers and linguists understand it. This essay reflects on the nature of the misconstrual in question, and relates it to the book's running concern with the inability of semantic theories focused exclusively on rules and knowledge to account for meaning and communication.
