I 206
Quasi-quotation marks/Quine: (half square brackets): quasi quotation lets for all x[x] and x be the same. - e.g. "[la.b]" for the same values of "a" and "b" the same object-language expression as above.
>Object language, >Quasi-quoation/Brandom, >Quasi-quotation/Quine.
Geach variant: E.g. for [Cicero] and [Cicero was more honest than Demosthenes] would simply be the terms "Cicero" and "Cicero was more honest than Demosthenes" - then:
"x" is a mere variable and not a proper name, but [x] is a proper name.
Correct:

For an x, x was a great orator, and [x] is the only proper name of a Roman, which occured in [x was more honest than Demosthenes].

Quasi-quotation: is not a name.
>Name/Geach, >Variable/Geach.
