Grice's "Linguistic Botany"

---

Grice:

"[a mode of procedure] would be, by an exercise

in 'linguistic botany', to further an

intuitive recognition of the class of

event-descriptions by identifying likenesses and

differences between vernacular expressions of

this sort and those of different but more or

less closely related kinds."

---

1. event
2. state of affair
3. fact
4. circumstance
5. condition.
6. other.
