Summary
In general, heidegger uses wo- terms, paradigmatically in Division i of Being and Time, to specify at once (1) the existential (i.e., concretely lived) situatedness of the human being (Dasein) in the course of this entity’s distinctive way of existing; and (2) the primarily pragmatic intelligibility in terms of which this entity makes sense of the world.
