Definition
The idea that the objects in the WORLD are name shaped, sentence shaped-objects.
Contra Russell (and in line with Kripke? hard to say). A proper name is NOT a description; a proper name is an arbitrarily nominated indication of a situation. This might be 1) a supra-sentient situation, 2) a supra-sapient description of an actual situation, or 3) an exapted (metaphorical, emergent) situation. In this sense, situation emerges as our _elusive_ word _par excellence_. We cherish the word, as it encapsulates our taxonomical suspension of the antinomy of the external.
Russell's theory of definite descriptions is a language for conjecture. Conjectural existence. It is an articulation of the language of notional conjecture. Acquaintance is recognition, which supports communal naming. Definite description strays into jurisdictional naming. A suspensional categorialization, if we accept these terms and rules as uncontroversial, then the following amplification is the result.
