Summary/Abstract: In the theory of education, the language that characterizes the discipline and distinguishes it from other sciences is important. Moreover, the language used by the educator seems to be crucial in practicing professional education. It is because the theoretical language and the empirical content of pedagogy, which is not only described but also created by language, must be consistent with each other. Therefore, it is worth considering the importance of language for the practice of education. And so, an inseparable condition for practicing a given pedagogy is the affirmation by the educator and the pupil of the ideal of education adopted in it, which in turn is an extremely complicated theoretical category for both sides of the process. At the same time, its content is a distinguishing feature of the identity of pedagogics and pedagogy, which is defined and characterized by the normative and prospective sense of language.
