19169 | Predicates are a source of generality in sentences [Davidson] |
Full Idea: Predicates introduce generality into sentences. | |
From: Donald Davidson (Truth and Predication [2005], 7) | |
A reaction: Not sure about this. Most words introduce generality. 'From' is a very general word about direction. 'Dogs bark' is as generally about dogs as it is generally about barking. |
