Abstract
After a kind of recapitulation of the earliest chapters of OSG, in the light and in the terms of the expositions which have followed since, in Chapter 20 of OSG entitled: “Entities of the Analysis”, Hjelmslev touches on two points which deserve more attention. Briefly put they are these:
-
1)
in the syntagmatic deduction: the further reduction of the phoneme to still smaller entities.
-
2)
in the paradigmatic deduction: the completely analogous categorical structure of the two planes.
