Recursive definition/Evans: not only for logical constants, and attributive adjectives.
Example: "big": satisfaction conditions: for all (possibly complex) predicates f, a fulfilled "big-f" if and only if a is a big fulfiller of f.
This is the conclusion of "big man" to "man" formally valid.
II 209
Problem: from "x is big" and "y is bigger than x " one can not deduce "Y is big"- because the meaning of "big" as part of "bigger" remains to be shown, or the meaning theory would have to recognize "big" in "is bigger than".
>Meaning theory, >Logical constants, >Predicates, >Satisfaction.
