Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on the problems of defining the concept of metaphilosophy in relation with the generalconcept of metascience. The results of this philosophical reflection will be compared with linguisticsin the context of determining the metaobject level, assuming the existence of certain common areas. Itis much easier to talk about the separation of the object and metaobject in the framework of linguistics.The status, range and tasks of philosophy are more difficult to define and thus it is more difficult to extractthe area of metaobject. We have assumed that the conceptual apparatus of reflection at the objectand the metaobject level must vary significantly. Only when a field of knowledge uses metalanguage, itcan be considered as metascience.
