Ludwig Wittgenstein in his later academic career's "language-games" is a Western philosophy for the twentieth century, the doctrine is influential. "Language-games", its pre-"Language-Image Theory" is essentially different; this difference due to the attitude of Wittgenstein's view of language in the former post a fundamental change in the history of philosophy rare dramatic scene Wittgenstein took place in the body. The starting point of the language-games based on routine language, everyday language recognized human and not only on the basis of human language, Wittgenstein, language-games have been conceived out, follow the rules, the family is similar to people living in the form of a series of profound concepts, and build a set of usage for the usage of words meaning of meaning based on the form and to the game, to comply with the rules of substance doctrine. I do not intend to Wittgenstein's language games late in the idea that represented a full range of interpretation, but only by a theory from the epistemological aspects of this to do some investigation to reveal the language-games that some of the epistemological point of view, and a useful discussion of these ideas. Wittgenstein's language-games in general useful to explain that in reality there is a real addition to the existing counterpart corresponding to words other than terms of learning, and thus the beginning of explanation of human cognitive activities; on "reason" and "cause" distinguish between right and wrong in some areas, although the necessity, but as the understanding of induction activities will be the final game under and a priori as the default language is beneficial to the understanding of human activities and make notes.
