I argue that Derrida makes a strict distinction between the exactness in the realm of concepts and the exactness in the realm of facts. Supposing that it is not correct to argue against him {\textendash} as Searle does {\textendash} that concepts cannot be exact because there are no strict boundaries between facts. The second part of the paper deals with a distinction used by John Searle: The distinction between linguistic meaning and speaker{\textquoteright}s meaning. According to Searle linguistic meaning is constituted outside a particular context of use whereas speaker{\textquoteright}s meaning is embedded in a particular situation. I argue this distinction is problematic as far as any meaning is constituted in a particular utterance and in a particular context of use.}, keywords = {background, concept, linguistic meaning, speaker{\textquoteright}s meaning, utterance}, url = {http://www.klemens.sav.sk/fiusav/doc/organon/prilohy/2012/2/161-169.pdf}, author = {Kobl{\'\i}{\v z}ek, Tom{\'a}{\v s}} }
