Re: [lojban] Not talking about imaginary worlds



b. gohla's hierarchy is about the way that such ideas get developed.  The
only major objection might be that "if p then q" usually means something like
"q is true in all (or most or the uppermost or some such thing) worlds in
which p is true"
Again, I think that all of this superstructure is misguided -- at least until
it can be shown that we really need it.  I think tha simply considering what
we *do* with language is kore natural and effective than creating new things
for descriptive langauge to be *about*.
