Viac o knihe

The book explores the relationship between linguistic reference to kinds and sortal concepts, highlighting their role in identifying and classifying objects. It distinguishes between kind-level predicates that presuppose or entail existence, impacting the interpretation of indefinite noun phrases. Additionally, it discusses the asymmetry between object reference and kind reference, demonstrating how this understanding aids in addressing complex issues in semantic composition. The work offers insights into the interplay between conceptual and grammatical systems.
