I 55
"Physical world"/terminology/Field:
a) narrow sense: without quantification over mathematical entities
b) wide sense: with quantification over mathematical entities e.g. assumption of the existence of sets: - e.g. "The set of apples in this room corresponds 1/1 with the set {0,1]}".
>Ontology, >Mathematical entities.
Narrow sense: e.g. "There are different x and y, which are apples in this room and these are such that every apple in the room is either x or y". - That is only about the physical world.
Narrow sense/Terminology/FieldField: instead of "statement about the physical world" I say: "nominalistic statement".
>Nominalism, >Reality, >World/thinking, >Platonism.
