Linguistic Turn is one of the most important directions in Anglo-American philosophy of the twentieth century when language became both an object of study and a major means of resolving philosophical disputes, or at least some or at least some of them. Professional philosophers in the United States and Britain have moved away from some of their traditional pursuits and turned to the language.
Moore, Bernard Russell, Nyer, Ludwig Wittgenstein, John Austin, and John Wisdom are among the most important names associated with the reorientation of language. In the earlier stages of this development, the dream of constructing an ideal language exerted a strong influence, especially among positivist logicians; deep respect (often bordering on worship) for everyday language later replaced the various attempts to construct an ideal language.
