McTaggert's argument is the most famous argument in contemporary philosophy for the unreality of time. He proposes two models for explaining time: A-Series and B-Series. A-Series is a model that explains time based on the three concepts of past, present, and future. B-Series is a model that explains time based on a dual model of the concepts of "earlier" and "later". McTaggert contends that the B-Series fails to explain change, which is a condition for the realization of time, and that the A-Series possesses internal contradiction; Consequently, by rejecting the possibility of both models being real, he concludes that time is unreal. This article analyzes and critiques McTaggart's view; and, inspired by the linguistic analysis method of the late Wittgenstein, we show that first of all, some things cannot be explained solely by a theoretical model. Therefore, time is a multi-level reality based on theoretical reflections and linguistic intuitions. Secondly, B-Series can indeed explain change. Also, A-Series is not contradictory; in this view, the objective aspect of time is explained by B-Series and the subjective aspect of that is explained by A-Series. Therefore, time is a multi-level reality that cannot be explained by a single conceptual model.
