LINKUL ŞI ROSTUL: DOUĂ CONCEPTE ÎNRUDITE
Link and sense: two related concepts

Summary/Abstract: Within the virtual environment of internet, hypertext (HTML) represents the most important concept of the web (www), revolutionising the information technology and including billions of users from all social categories and levels in the communication network. Due to the important concept of the (hyper)link, browsing the enormous hypertext has become extremely easy and quick. The link (relation, reference) has therefore become the new sign of the electronic environment, with two characteristic dimensions: technological and linguistic (textual). The similarity between the link and an older concept of the natural language – sense (as described by C. Noica) – emphasizes a clear connection between the latter and the possibility for the modern term to acquire new meanings, related to those of the sense (“mouth”, “partition”, “order”). Subsequently to reading and writing, hypertext and its links have become the new study object of linguistics.
