    I wanted to spell Begriffsschrift but It's Begriffs Schrift,
    here what's its name or Begriffschrift, it's Frege's here
    that its terms are clear whatever they are.

    Frege's "Begriffsschrift" means 'concept writing'. In his
    book it means a formula language for pure thought.

    In "Begriffsschrift" the first part, "Begriff", means 'concept'.
    Otherwise the word has other meanings including 'word' and 'idea'.
    The second part "Schrift" means 'a system of writing'. Otherwise
    it has other meanings includin 'handwriting' and 'Bible'. The
    "s" between the parts does not mean anything. Such "s" is often
    used between parts of compound words.
