3.32 A sign is what is sensibly perceptible of a symbol.
Cf. 3.11. So “2” would be the sign, but it would be a different symbol in first 23 and then 102. In “23” the sign “2” means “twenty-,” whereas in “102” it means “-and 2.”
My plan is to post translations of and comments on Ludwig Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus. Please feel free to comment.
