In this paper I want to unravel the real concept of meaning for both Coseriu and Ortega y Gasset. I want to know the concept of meaning created by the speaker in the linguistic act in statu nascendi. Coseriu studies language and therefore meaning in three moments: when the individual speaker creates the language and therefore the meaning, the sense; when the individual speaker uses his previous knowledge to create the sense in the linguistic act, the virtual and potential meaning; and the already realized meaning that belongs to the abstract language, the historical meaning or the meaning of a particular language. Ortega y Gasset studies what he calls the saying within the linguistic act and the etymology within the abstract language. Both meaning and saying reveal the verbal behavior of the individual speaker in the idiomatic context (Coseriu) which includes the concept of the way of thinking and the implicit concept of the way of being of things (Ortega y Gasset).
