This paper gives an account of Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology of language, beginning with the genetic and intuitive model of Edmund Husserl and the dialectical (diacritical) model of Ferdinand de Saussure. Throughout the text, the evolution and appropriation of these two approaches is described, in order to give some answers to the following problems concerning the philosophy of language: the ontological status of language, the structure that underlies the acts of signification, the unity of meaning (its essence) understood as coexistence-and not as a significant entity. Finally, the diacritical approach is discussed within the framework of a negative ontology, conceiving the meaning at the margins of the expression, as an indirect and sauvage meaning, that is, as an act of non-positional expression.

Palabras llave : Merleau-Ponty; Philosophy of Lenguage; Husserl; Saussure; sauvage being.
