Denotation

[edit] Welcome to Denotation!

Hi,

If anyone has any problems or queries about Denotation, please feel free to add a message here!

My problem is that it's not as awesome as detonation. --Lenoxus 01:53, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

I don't even know where to start, this page is simply awful. For instance, in the wildly unhelpful picture section, why doesn't the brown cross image denote a representation of a brown cross like the example of the heart? There is no sensible reason why there would be a difference. And what the heck does the sentence 'In logic and semantics, denotational always attracts the extension meaning "in the pair", but the other element genuinely varies' mean? I think I am being charitable by even calling it a sentence. Since I came to the page looking for information on the contrast between denotation and reference I can't help give you a better understanding of them, but this page needs to be put under review or something. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.200.117.209 (talk) 03:55, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
