ABSTRACT
It might be thought that CR can secure this in a particularly neat way. For someone who grasps [1], repeated here, [1] Galileo believed that the earth moves. will think the thought that the earth moves in doing so – since this is involved in understanding the complement – and so be acquainted with the proposition it refers to. Thus, it may seem that [1] expresses a proposition grasp of which guarantees grasp of the proposition it is about. Then there could not be any sentence that expressed the same proposition understanding of which did not afford grasp of the proposition to which it relates Galileo.
