That we must address the issue of what it means for something to mean something else shows in itself that the answer is not obvious. Indeed, philosophers of language spend the better part of their time on this very question. At the same time, the simplest man can use language and he knows just exactly what he means by the things that he says.

Philosophy of Science, 1941
The following analysis has been undertaken mainly for the purpose of presenting a sample of a method which, as the writer holds, would, if widely and consistently applied, tend considerably to reduce the number and the significance of epistemological problems.

In the last chapter we used the Markov–Kakutani Theorem to produce for every compact abelian group G an “invariant mean”: a mean in the algebraic dual space of B(G) fixed by the adjoint of every translation map on B(G). The Riesz Representation Theorem then provided a G-invariant, regular, Borel probability measure to represent this mean via ...

Abstract Murti Pujak Jains insist that it is necessary that one means to mean. This idea was acknowledged by virtually all our informants at the Dadabari temple. At the same time however, there was no confidence that not having meant disqualifies the/?w/« as a, puja.

Science of Computer Programming, 1991
In this paper, a formalization of exceptions to a general rule is proposed. It builds upon the modularisation of theories proposed by the algebraic specification approach, and preserves its engineering principles: modularity and com- positionality. It relies on a model-theoretic definition of the "but" conjunctive, whose properties and implementations ...

There are many different ways to use the term meaning. It is modified by such adjectives as subjective, objective, universal, referential, pragmatic, mathematical, context-bound, context-free, shared, and taken-as-shared, to name a few. Such modifying adjectives could lead one to suspect that the word meaning is not very meaningful or is even ...

This chapter considers whether one can think of the semiotic or ‘musical’ elements in language, particularly in poetry, as meaning-laden in their own terms. The previous chapters have shown how abstract formal elements such as texture and formal proportion can supplement literal, denotative meaning.
