Aha, yes of course. Now I do see the difference. I presume you'd agree with me that "pa mapku cu se dasni ro faspre" can be = true (in a world where they all wear berets)? In Blobular metaphysics, that= is, rather than Martin's preferred Ready-Made. >> Of >> course, if you stuck {na ku} in front, they'd become nonequivalent again= , >> because that would trigger the scope-sensitivity of PA. > > In the domain in which both are true, sticking a "na ku" in front > would make them both false, so why would they become nonequivalent? {na ku pa broda cu brode} is true if {re broda cu brode}, and if the number= of brodas that brode is anything but 1. {na ku lo broda cu brode} means th= e same as {lo broda na ku brode}. In other words they'd become non-equivalent relative to general truth-condi= tions, not relative to a particular domain in which both unnegated versions= were true. --And. --=20 You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "= lojban" group.
