Abstract
Every scientific discipline has a set of terms and definitions to describe its object of study. These labels are fundamental both for the analysis and for the communication of results and the subsequent replication of a work methodology with other exponents of that object. The problem arises when the labels become confused with the object itself and begin to play a much more prominent role than the one desirable in Science, causing us to fall into the well-known statement that “the error is in the corpse, but not in Galen”. The following pages explore this problem in the field of linguistics. To that end, we dwell on the labels used for languages, for word classes and even on label for the word “word” itself.
