I 200
"Any"/"all"/"nobody"/"nothing"/"something"/Strawson: these are all either singular nouns (A-expressions) or end with a singular relative pronoun.
Like nouns in the singular they do not have the character of B-expressions (predicates), and cannot occur in such places.
A-expressions/Strawson: nouns in singular
B-expressions/Strawson: predicates
I 201f
Difference A/B/Strawson: a series of statements can contain a constant B (predicate) and variable A-elements (singular nouns).
It could follow a statement that contains the same B-element but d no A.
Conversely: from this finding could none of the previous findings follow - i.e. in place of the A can occur variables. - (Quine ditto).
Cf. >Singular terms/Brandom, >Predicates/Brandom.

>Universal Quantification, >Existential quantification, >Domain, >Individuation, >Identification, >Reference, >Someone/Geach.
