| Mention | Quine | V 100 Mention/Use/Language Learning/Quine: the confusion mention/use is necessary for learning: the sound of the word has approximately the same effect as the sight of the object - also transition from observation statements to timeless statements: E.g. from "Fido is a dog" to "A dog is an animal" (the confusion is ignored here). >Language Acquisition/Quine, >Learning/Quine. VII (e) 82ff Mention/use/expression/Quine: e.g. the term "(F I Y)" itself is not a formula, but a name that describes the formula. ((s) conditional probability). IX 22 Use/mention/Quine: on the right hand side of "ε" we use quantifiable variables - on the left hand side of "ε" we mention classes. >Variables/Quine, >Classes/Quine. I 339 Mentioning/Use/Russell/Whitehead/QuineVsRussell/QuineVsWhitehead: Whitehead and Russell, who took the distinction between use and mention lightly, wrote "p implies q" (in the material sense) as if it were interchangeable with "If p, then q" (in the material sense). C. I. Lewis did the same, he wrote "p implies strictly q" and declared it as "It is necessary that not (p and not q)". Hence, he developed a modal logic in which "necessary" is a sentence operator. Solution/Quine: It is best to consider "implies" and "analytical" as general terms that are predicted by sentences by adding them predictively to names (i.e. quotations) of sentences. Unlike "and", "not", "if so" which are not terms but operators. I 68 Implication/mention/use/Quine: not sentences or schemata are implied, but their names. For we cannot write "implies" between the sentences themselves, but only between their names. So we mention the sentences by using their names. We are talking about the sentences. ((s) Implication is via the sentences. >Implication/Quine. Different: Conditional/Quine: (">" or "if...then...") here we use the sentences or schemes themselves, we do not mention them. No reference is made to them. They appear only as parts of a longer sentence or schema. Example: If Cassius is not hungry, then he is not skinny and hungry This mentions Cassius but not a sentence. It is the same with conjunction, negation and alternation. VII (e) 82 Mention/Use/Expression/Quine: For example: the expression "(φ I ψ)" is not a formula itself, but a name describing the formula. VII (f) 112f Sentence/Schema/Quine: the distinction between sentence and schema is not the same as that between mention/use. IX 22 Usage/Mention/Quine: to the right of "ε" we use quantifiable variables, to the left of "ε" we mention classes. X 62 Object language/meta language/mention/use/(s): the object language is mentioned (it is spoken about), the meta language is used to talk about the object language. >Metalanguage/Quine, >Object language/Quine. |

| Metalanguage | Quine | X 71 Metalanguage/Set Theory/Quine: in the metalanguage a stronger set theory is possible than in the object language. In the metalanguage a set z is possible so that ERz applies - ((s) A set of that is the satisfaction relation (in the form of a set of ordered pairs) - not in the object language, otherwise >Grelling paradox. >Set Theory/Quine, >Object Language/Quine. X 61 Object Language/Metalanguage/Mention/Use/(s): the object language is mentioned (it is spoken about), the metalanguage is used to talk about the object language. Object Language/Metalanguage/OS/MS/ordered pairs/Quine: if we define ordered pairs ('x,y': the set whose only elements are {{x},1} and {{y},2}.), this does not mean that in the object language the variables could also take sets or ordered pairs as values. We use the ordered pairs only in metalanguage. Metalanguage: is the everyday language in which we talk about logic. For example, if I say that the pair '3.5' fulfills the sentence "x < y" then I temporarily assume that the sentence "x < y" belongs to the object langauge and that the numbers 3 and 5 belong to the subject area of the object language. But I don't have to assume that the ordered pairs '3,5' belong to the object language. It is enough that it belongs to metalanguage, and it does. Fulfillment/metalanguage/object language/Quine(s): what fulfills belongs to metalanguage, what is fulfilled to object language |

| Number Theory | Quine | IX 81 Elementary Number Theory/Quine: this is the theory that can only be expressed with the terms "zero, successor, sum, power, product, identity" and with the help of connections from propositional logic and quantification using natural numbers. One can omit the first four of these points or the first two and the fifth. But the more detailed list is convenient, because the classical axiom system fits directly to it. Quine: our quantifiable variables allow other objects than numbers. However, we will now tacitly introduce a limitation to "x ε N". Elementary Number Theory/Quine: less than/equal to: superfluous here. "Ez(x + z = y)" - x ε N > Λ + x = x. - x,y ε N >{x} + y = {x+y}. IX 239 Relative Strength/Proof Theory/Theory/Provability/Quine: Goedel, incompleteness theorem (1931)(1). Since number theory can be developed in set theory, this means that the class of all theorems IX 239 (in reality, all the Goedel numbers of theorems) of an existing set theory can be defined in that same set theory, and different things can be proved about it in it. >Set Theory/Quine. Incompleteness Theorem: as a consequence, however, Goedel showed that set theory (if it is free of contradiction) cannot prove one thing through the class of its own theorems, namely that it is consistent, i.e., for example, that "0 = 1" does not lie within it. If the consistency of one set theory can be proved in another, then the latter is the stronger (unless both are contradictory). Zermelo's system is stronger than type theory. >Type theory, >Strength of theories, >Set theory, >Provability. 1.Kurt Gödel: Über formal unentscheidbare Sätze der Principia Mathematica und verwandter Systeme I. In: Monatshefte für Mathematik und Physik. 38, 1931, S. 173–198, doi:10.1007/BF01700692 II 178 Elementary number theory is the modest part of mathematics that deals with the addition and multiplication of integers. It does not matter if some true statements will remain unprovable. This is the core of Goedel's theorem. He has shown how one can form a sentence with any given proof procedure purely in the poor notation of elementary number theory, which can be proved then and only then if it is wrong. But wait! The sentence cannot be proved and still be wrong. So it is true, but not provable. Quine: we used to believe that mathematical truth consists in provability. Now we see that this view is untenable to mathematics as a whole. II 179 Goedel's incompleteness theorem (the techniques applied there) has proved useful in other fields: Recursive number theory, or recursion theory for short. Or hierarchy theory. >Goedel/Quine. III 311 Elementary Number Theory/Quine: does not even have a complete proof procedure. Proof: reductio ad absurdum: suppose we had it with which to prove every true sentence in the spelling of the elementary number theory, III 312 then there would also be a complete refutation procedure: to refute a sentence one would prove its negation. But then we could combine the proof and refutation procedure of page III 247 to a decision procedure. V 165 Substitutional Quantification/Referential Quantification/Numbers/Quine: Dilemma: the substitutional quantification does not help elementary number theory to any ontological thrift, for either the numbers run out or there are infinitely many number signs. If the explanatory speech of an infinite number sign itself is to be understood again in the sense of insertion, we face a problem at least as serious as that of numbers - if it is to be understood in the sense of referential quantification, then one could also be satisfied from the outset uncritically with object quantification via numbers. >Quantification/Quine. V 166 Truth conditions: if one now assumes substitutional quantification, one can actually explain the truth conditions for them by numbers by speaking only of number signs and their insertion. Problem: if numerals are to serve their purpose, they must be as abstract as numbers. Expressions, of which there should be an infinite number, could be identified by their Goedel numbers. No other approach leads to a noticeable reduction in abstraction. Substitutional quantification: forces to renounce the law that every number has a successor. A number would be the last, but the substitutional quantification theorist would not know which one. It would depend on actual inscriptions in the present and future. (Quine/Goodman 1947). This would be similar to Esenin Volpin's theory of producible numbers: one would have an unknown finite bound. V 191 QuineVsSubstitutional Quantification: the expressions to be used are abstract entities as are the numbers themselves. V 192 NominalismVsVs: one could reduce the ontology of real numbers or set theory to that of elementary number theory by establishing truth conditions for substitutional quantification on the basis of Goedel numbers. >Goedel Numbers/Quine. QuineVs: this is not nominalistic, but Pythagorean. It is not about the high estimation of the concrete and disgust for the abstract, but about the acceptance of natural numbers and the rejection of most transcendent numbers. As Kronecker says: "The natural numbers were created by God, the others are human work". QuineVs: but even that is not possible, we saw above that the subsitutional quantification over classes is basically not compatible with the object quantification over objects. V 193 VsVs: one could also understand the quantification of objects in this way. QuineVs: that wasn't possible because there aren't enough names. You could teach space-time coordination, but that doesn't explain language learning. X 79 Validity/Sentence/Quantity/Schema/Quine: if quantities and sentences fall apart in this way, there should be a difference between these two definitions of validity about schema (with sentences) and models (with sentences). But it follows from the Löwenheim theorem that the two definitions of validity (using sentences or sets) do not fall apart as long as the object language is not too weak in expression. Condition: the object language must be able to express (contain) the elementary number theory. Object Language: In such a language, a scheme that remains true in all insertions of propositions is also fulfilled by all models and vice versa. >Object Language/Quine The requirement of elementary number theory is rather weak. Def Elementary Number Theory/Quine: speaks about positive integers by means of addition, multiplication, identity, truth functions and quantification. Standard Grammar/Quine: the standard grammar would express the functors of addition, multiplication, like identity, by suitable predicates. X 83 Elementary Number Theory/Quine: is similar to the theory of finite n-tuples and effectively equivalent to a certain part of set theory, but only to the theory of finite sets. XI 94 Translation Indeterminacy/Quine/Harman/Lauener: ("Words and Objections"): e.g. translation of number theory into the language of set theory by Zermelo or von Neumann: both versions translate true or false sentences of number theory into true or false sentences of set theory. Only the truth values of sentences like e.g. "The number two has exactly one element", which had no sense before translation, differ from each other in both systems. (XI 179: it is true in von Neumann's and false in Zermelo's system, in number theory it is meaningless). XI 94 Since they both serve all purposes of number theory in the same way, it is not possible to mark one of them as a correct translation. |

| Observation | Quine | Rorty I 296 Weight of theory in observation: from it follows Quine’s overthrow of the two dogmas. (Kuhn, Feierabend). If we were to admit for once that Newton was not better than Aristotle, because his words corresponded with reality, and if we were to base our preference not simply on the vague holistic reasoning that Newton allowed us to better get on with reality, then we would have no arguments for the separation of science from religion. Quine I 89f Stimulus meaning is independent of number of speakers - observation proximity: societal: similarity of the stimulus meaning in the Community. - Observation proximity high: colors. - Low: Bachelor. >Stimulus Meaning/Quine. I 97f Gaurisankar: opportunity sentences are mutually exclusive, after discovery stimulus meanings collapse. II 43 Categorical observation sentences: are independent of space and time where there’s smoke, there’s fire - through language learning - knowledge still needs space/time - but they are theoretical terms! - Truth of categorical observation sentences not by observation - But by falsification. (> Falsification/Popper). V 61f Observation/Theory/Quine: here there are two relationships: an epistemological one of confirmation and a semantic one through which the sentences acquire meaning - these two relations are coextensive, in other words: the epistemological and semantic relationship between observations and sentences are coextensive. - ((s) This is not identity.) V 64 Observation/Quine: does not define! - Instead: observation sentences. - Observation: smell, taste, touch, hearing sensation. - Behavioral criterion: consent, agreement that do not rely on sense data. - ((s) but on language? - B-sentence: Does usually not speak about feelings but external things, no conclusions - ultimately everyday language, not specialization. >Observation Sentences/Quine. V 67 Everyone learns their object language in their own way. >Object Language/Quine. V 68 But it must be possible to learn by direct conditioning - learning by determining the similarity basis. V 94 Observation sentence: only has a truth value in conjunction with a situation. |

| Observation Sentences | Quine | II 43 Categorical observation sentences: are independent of time and space "Where there’s smoke, there’s fire" - are learned through language learning - knowledge still needs space/time - but they are theoretical terms - Truth of categorical observation sentences not by observation - But falsification (> Falsification/Popper). II 43~ Empirical content = categorical observation sentences: are linking theory and observation - two theories are equivalent if all categorical sentences are identical - theory implies categorical sentences without being implied by them - a theoretical term does not appear in categorical sentence. II 218f Observation sentences are not about the experience! ((s) but about language, learning, situation, circumstances) - Quine: but they are fairly analog to the experience - single observation sentences are quite independent of each other. VI 6 Observation sentence/compound/Quine: complex observation sentence is not merely a conjunction "There is blue" and "There is a pebble" - but "This pebble is blue". VI 9 Sentences enter the link with stimulus leeway as a whole - N.B.: in this case they do not contain words, but only syllables! ((s)> Language learning, conditioning). VI 10 Observation sentence/weight of theory/Quine: learned in connection with the stimulus situation, the sentence is free of theory - but considered word by word it contains theory. >Stimulus/Quine. VI 11/12 Language learning/observation sentence/ontology/Quine: we assume full sentences - if we had assumed single words, we would have ignored the problem of ontology and would already have assumed objects. >Sentences/Quine. VI 12f Categorical observation sentence/Quine: brings hypothesis: "As soon as this, then that". VI 13 But no reification of points in time. VI 15 Circumstances: should be accompanying constantly - this makes pronouns and anaphora necessary - but not observation conditional: this is gained from un-timed (timeless) sentences using the theory. VI 59ff Observation sentence/Quine: new: no longer intersubjective agreement as a criterion. VI 61 But fluidity of communication - and efficiency of practical contact - therein lies the "factualness". XII 101 Definition observation sentence/naturalized epistemology/Quine: the sentences that are causally closest to the receptors - problem: "how to eliminate superfluous information?" XII 102 Better: sentence which is insensitive within a community when it comes to differences in past experiences. XII 103 In larger communities, the number of recognized object languages drops. >Object Language/Quine. XII 105 Decide: identity of the leeway of stimuli - ((s) Set of possible deviations must be the same for all members.) |

| Paradoxes | Quine | VI 124 Comprehension/paradoxes/Quine: that each element relation (each term) results in a set is not possible because of Burali-Forti, etc. - Solution: these element relations (conditions) may determine sets, or perhaps the last (outermost) classes - outer condition: cannot be an element in turn - are introduced layer after layer - for classical mathematics "true0" already suffices - everything is in one language - there is a hierarchy of truth predicates. >Truth Predicate/Quine. VII (g) 136 Paradoxes/Quine: no longer occur when the levels of language are distinguished, i.e. if one keeps out the expressions "true-in-L", "denotes-in-L", etc. of the language L itself. IX 124 Burali-Forti/paradox/Quine: "the class of ordinal numbers does not exist": "NO ε ϑ": is the tamed version of Burali-Forti: that there must be a larger ordinal number and simultaneously it cannot exist. - Reductio ad absurdum of the comparability of the ordinal numbers - solution/today: we will not assume that every condition about the existence of an element relation determines a class. X 70 Grelling paradox/Quine: "x does not fulfil itself" must not occur in the object language. >Object Language/Quine. |

| Satisfaction | Quine | VI 121f Truth/Satisfaction/Recursion/Tarski/Quine: truth can actually not be defined by satisfaction (level) - Solution: satisfaction itself is not directly but recursively defined - then truth can be defined through satisfaction - because satisfaction of each sentence is delivered, not a rule like "x fulfils y" for variable y - direct definition: leads to rules - Recursion: on individual cases. VI 123 Hence truth and satisfaction clearly, but not eliminably defined. --- X 61 Satisfaction/Meta language/Object language/Quine(s): that what satisfies, is part of the meta language, that what is satisfied is part of the object language. >Object language, >Metalanguage. X 62 Satisfaction/Quine: the n-tuples can contain more elements than the satisfied sentence has variables. The surplus elements are irrelevant - E.g. x conquered y is fulfilled by the n-tuple (sequence) for every a - ((s) i.e. the surplus elements can be any objects.) If the n-tuple has fewer elements than there are variables in the sentence, then the last element is always repeated. Only closed sentences can be true - but also closed sentences can be satisfied - they are satisfied with any n-tuple (object sequence), because all surplus elements of the sequence (objects) are simply irrelevant - if the sentence contains no variables, all objects are irrelevant. Quine: this applies due to a convention. X 63 N-tuples/sequence/satisfaction/(s): the sequences or n-tuples are always sequences of objects, rather than strings. - A sentence (even a string) can never be satisfied by a string, only by objects. Satisfaction/alphabetical order/Quine: is important because of conjunction - E.g. satisfies both "x conquered y" and "z killed x". X 64 Satisfaction/Existential quantification/Quine/(s): existential quantification creates sentences where not all variables must be bound. Deviation at most at i-th point: the point that may deviate is just the point of the bound variable! - E.g. (Ey)(x conquered y) is fulfilled with X 68 Satisfaction definition/Quine: must contain object language and metalanguage. X 72 Satisfaction/Sequences/Object sequences/General/Particular/Compound/Compound sentences/Quine: Problem: you could know of an n-tuple which simple sentences it fulfils and yet you cannot decide whether it satisfies a particular compound sentence. - E.g. one could know which simple sentences an n-tuple satisfies, but not if it fulfils a quantification "Ez Fxyz" - because that depends on whether at least one element w requires: fulfils "Fxyz". |
