A variable that can have more than one referent at the same time.

All right then, we'll just have to leave it at that. I'm afraid my pedagogical
resources are exhausted.


I don't think that you've explained anything, though you've certainly
repeated "plural predication exists" many, many times. I take your
inability to explain your position as a sign that your position isn't
based on something explicable. If you do think that you've offered an
explanation of plural predication, let me know where it is. I would
hate to have your exchanges end and have missed it.
