"mean to" as meanᴺ

This should better read

meanᴺ

meanᴺᴺ

i.e. by M. O. R. (Modified Occam's Razor)

mean-N = (i.e. iff) mean-NN

-- I discovered how happy when I told Martinich about it. He said, 'good work if you can get it'.

For he was trying in his _Dialectica_ paper to prove Grice wrong on a couple things.

And Grice _seems_ inconsistent, slightly.

He proposes

mean-nn iff mean-n (i.e. intend, 'mean-to')

So, if it's all a continuum, why bother with the distinction of what he unashamedly called 'senses' in his early "Meaning"?

-- the equation, 'mean-to' is a case of 'natural' meaning, from "Meaning" -- repr. in WoW. Etc.
