Semantical Role/"say"/Lycan/Cresswell/(s): in idiosyncratic language ( "birds" means in L*, what "pigs" means in L) - Solution: The sentence with "pigs" plays in L* the same semantic role such as the sentence with "birds" in L.
Problem: one cannot isolate a class of sentences if this class is in any way relative to the language that is in question ((s) circular).
Saying/Cresswell: becomes a three-digit relation between person, sentence and interpreted language. (Cresswell pro).

I 107f
Semantical Role/Conceptual Role/Lycan/Boer: E.g. Cicero/Tullius play the same semantic role but different conceptual roles.
>Conceptual role.
E.g. Hb and Gc play the same sR, iff DEN(b) = DEN(c) and DEN(H) = DEN(G).
This is only relative to DEN.
DEN: if H is a predicate, DEN H is the property (the denotated).
