Desire: desires are linguistically formulated attitudes or attitudes that can in principal be formulated for actually given or imagined situations or objects. One can wish to possess an object or to realize or terminate states or situations. A special case is unconscious desires, which can ultimately be identified only by attributing a linguistic form. In this way one can also ascribe wishes to animals. See also imagination, commands, sentences, propositions, attribution._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
