The study explores the possibilities of understanding language against the background of the specificity of human relations and their philosophical-anthropological assumptions. In doing so, it draws on some philosophical-anthropological theories that have addressed the problem of language to a greater or lesser extent (Plessner, Cassirer, Jonas), it takes cultural anthropology into account and some of the findings of quantum physics. By relational anthropology is meant the philosophical anthropological understanding of man as a being of specific relations at all the key levels of his life. The following topics receive special attention: the phenomenon of naming, the difference between mythical and logical words and consciousness, the transition from one to the other and the implications for language and consciousness.
