  Can't I use the word “to see” in such a way that I call only this→ ‘seen’?”
  But how do I act according to this decision? Do I, e.g. admit that someone else besides me can see it, or do I say that only I can see it?
  Suppose everybody talked only about what we should now describe as ‘What's seen by me L.W.’. But they all know what I see; they don't ask me. And if anybody describes it wrongly we say that he
doesn't
can't
 speak properly, expresses himself wrongly. There is no such thing as deceiving somone about what I see. –
Can't I even then imagine a temptation
Isn't there even then a temptation
 to say, “I can only know what I see not what the others see?”?
