BARCELO ASPEITIA, Axel Arturo. ¿Por qué una palabra significa lo que significa? Comentarios a Escepticismo del significado y teorías de conceptos de Sílvio Mota Pinto. Crítica (Méx., D.F.) [online]. 2011, vol.43, n.127, pp.59-66. Epub 05-Jun-2020. ISSN 0011-1503. https://doi.org/10.22201/iifs.18704905e.2011.852.
In this brief commentary, I argue that Mota Pinto’s theory of interpretation (2009) predicts meanings where there are none. I also criticize his presentation of the communal perspective on meaning, drawing a distinction between two dif-ferent kinds of semantic facts: a word meaning what it does rather than meaning something else, and such word meaning what it does rather than not meaning anything at all.
