Abstract
The philosophical world would be a sorry one without its “international vocabulary,” which is heavily dependent upon Greek and Latin loan words. Some of these words have a very long history. Boethius put such words as form, nature, substance, etc., into the history of philosophy.1 Other words like idea, physics, metaphysics, etc., came directly from the Greek. Husserl’s eidos is the restitution of the primary form of the word, idea. And of course, “synthesis” and “analysis” are also loan words direct from the Greek. The word, analysis, conjures up the vision of the studious chemist, the music theorist, the news commentator, and even the philosopher. But in philosophy there can be any number of approaches to analysis.
