In this article, we present a literature that aims to analyze the possibilities of convergence between mathematics, Ethnomathematics and philosophical thought of Ludwig Wittgenstein in his "Philosophical Investigations". He attempted to rethink the conceptions we have of mathematics, Ethnomathematics and pedagogical practice traversing different approaches to mathematical science, their epistemological foundations and its teaching in academic institutions. Relying on philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein thoughts and based on a Ethnomathematics perspective on different conceptions, contextualizing the mathematical language games.
