ABSTRACTION SENSIBLE CONCRETE ESSENTIAL MENTAL
PERSONAL INTERPRETATION( RELATIVE)/ POWER OF NAMING & LABELING THING ITSELF (AS IT IS)
CONNOTATION & DENOTATION (LOGICAL PROPERTIES OF TERMS) 1. CONNOTES: (SUBJECTIVE/ SECONDARY QUALITIES) • “PARTICULAR/ SPECIFIC” meaning of something. (particular idea) • essence and function of a term • Group of characteristics essential to a term. • E.g. a connotation of a medical doctor • is a man that performs medical functions. • Constitutes the essence of all those men to whom the term “DOCTOR” applies.
CONNOTATION & DENOTATION (LOGICAL PROPERTIES OF TERMS) 2. DENOTES: (OBJECTIVE/ PRIMARY QUALITIES) • set of things/persons to which the term or connotation refers. • Also known as “PHYSICAL” extension.
What’s the connotation of the term ‘cute?’ • Its denotation?
The idea that you believe is true even though you do not have proof IN LOGIC: a relation between a term, and the objects which it ultimately signifies.
ESSENCE OF A TERM? • NAGAMIT VS MASABI LANG
THE INTENSION AND EXTENSION OF TERMS • a word is a term if: • “used” in a statement. • Use vs. Mention • (subject of a statement vs. redundancy) • ‘‘‘Wherever’ is an eight-letter word.’’ (supposition of terms) • ‘‘I will follow you wherever you go.’’
SUPPOSITION • Relationship: term (SUBJ) + what it designates (PREDICATE/ OBJ) • CLASSIFICATION • I. PROPER SUPPOSITION = • “REAL” disposition • 1. MATERIAL • Without reference to its real meaning • Man is a “three letter word” • 2. FORMAL • Real meaning of the term A) LOGICAL: “Conceptual”/ “abstract” - Man is a universal being B) REAL: “Physical” -drinking cold beer has been part of man’s recreational activities • II. IMPROPER SUPPOSITION = • implies another “suggestion”/ metaphors/ figurative speech/ double meaning • E. g. • Alam mo isusumbongkitasa MMDA. Binangga mo kasiangpusoko!
THE INTENSION AND EXTENSION OF TERMS • Ideas = Words = subject matter = terms = concretized = signs = symbols = MEANINGS! • MEANINGS: INTENSIONAL & EXTENSIONAL • Intension determines extension • INTENSIONAL MEANING • Attributes that the term CONNOTES • specific • CONNOTATION • EXTENSIONAL MEANING • Members of the class that the term DENOTES • DENOTATION • General
INTENSIONAL MEANING • INTENSIONAL MEANING OF A PUSSY CAT: • Furry • 4 legs • Charming • EXTENSIONAL MEANING OF A PUSSY CAT: • Persian • Peterbald • Brazilian Shorthair • UkranianLevkoy

INCREASING & DECREASING: INTENSION & EXTENSION • Increasing intension/ decreasing extension: • from general to specific term • E.g. continent • asia(general), Philippines, Luzon, Taguig, GCIC (particular) • Decreasing intension/ increasing extension: • from specific to general term • GCIC • GCIC (particular), Taguig, Luzon, Philippines, Asia, Continent (general)
CONNOTATION & DENOTATION (LOGICAL PROPERTIES OF TERMS) • The connotation and denotation of a term are inversely proportional • As the connotation increases, its denotation decreases (vice versa)
SEATWORK: CROSSWISE (By group) 1) Give an example of a connotation that is somewhat related to your course and be able to provide its corresponding denotation. 2) Provide an example in which the intension and extension of a term are both increasing and decreasing. • Increasing intension/ decreasing extension of a term • Decreasing intension/ increasing extension of a term
3) Give 1 example each of a material supposition of term and an improper supposition of term from the activity that pertains to “plate a & b”. 4) Give 1 example each of a formal & logical supposition of term and a formal & real supposition of term from the activity that pertains to “plate a & b”.
