Re: [lojban] Re: [lojban-beginners] Place structure "types"



By the way, there are several papers in the collected works of Richard Montague ("Formal Philosophy"?) that deal at least in passing with questions bout what happens in propositions and other opaque contexts (beyond the basic no-nos of quantifying in and interchange of identicals) and also various follow-ups (carefully avoiding the misguided) the Frege's original papers.

    Well, it affects the claim that Lojban keeps its logical structure "on its face" since jiggery-pokery of this sort goes against the logical structure, which puts unicorns somewhere else (strictly, what goes on in a {du'u} clause is a sense, not a reference, but that just makes matters even more complex here). 
I do agree, however, that {lo pavyseljirna} is odd in this context, being at least a context off from the present one.

I don't think a discussion on the intricacies of the universe of discourse is really appropriate in the Beginner's group, especially since we haven't yet come to an agreement on it in things like default scope.

It's also a rather technical problem that doesn't majorly affect conversational Lojban.

Please move any further discussion of this to the main list.
