II 315f
Identification/Individuation/Searle: the identification of a perceived object is always "the (possibly reversed) spot, which causes this experience" (self-reference). This is not circular but the best-case identification. >Causation.

V 141
Reference/identification/Searle: e.g. a dog only barks in the presence of his master. E.g. signal lamp: both do not refer to anything, but can be used for identification. No identification is possible in: "the only man with 8232 hairs on his head".
V 143
Reference is always based on the facts the speaker knows about the obejects.
V 175
Meaning/identification/Frege: a proper name means an object, a predicate means a term. Strawson: neutral: a subject identifies a >singular term. A predicate identifies a >general term. Strawson: between singular term and general term is a non-relational connection.
---
V 177f
Identification/object/predicate/universal/Strawson: object: identification is done by facts about the object. This works differently for predicates: at the most: "the rose and the book have the same color": but that does not identify the color. Searle: that is why >universals are identified by meaning and not by facts.
