This article aims to discuss Spinoza's language criticism and analysis. As it is known, though Spinoza has written a half-latched book of linguistics about Hebrew, he has not given a work in the field called language philosophy today. However, to the extent that the subject of language is one of the important footsteps of the correction of understanding ability, it can be said that from Spinoza’s point of view, it sees a propedetic function for philosophical trial. Even according to Spinoza, the reason that some philosophers who came before him were unable to understand the common order and the compulsory causality of nature is that they, instead of following the connection and order of ideas and things, refer to linguistic categories to explain nature. This is why one of the first steps of philosophy should be the enlightenment of the physical-implicative nature of the language. Thus, the ground will be prepared for the use of the language for philosophical purposes, i.e. for the transmission of sublime ideas. In this article, the language theory developed by Spinoza will also include the establishment of a self-guided conceptual language in geometric order, as well as the psychological-cognitive analysis of the language phenomenon.
