(Speakers have no explicit theory). - But also: DummettVsWittgenstein: control is more than a practical skill. - - - III (b) 68 Speech/control/propositional knowledge/Dummett: there is usually little difference between knowledge of P and knowledge of the truth of the sentence. >Judgments. But propositional knowledge is not sufficient for language proficiency. - Propositiponal knowledge is not sufficient for word understanding. Knowledge of a single proposition is not sufficient for understanding of words. - ((s) The word must be able to appear in several contexts.) - ((s) Converse to substitution principle). - - - III (c) 119 Translation theory/Dummett: does not explain the command of the native language. III (c) 117f Theory of meaning/Dummett: from a theory of truth (axioms like ""earth" denotates earth") - but meaning is more than knowledge of the axioms: Knowledge of the (corresponding) propositions. - From knowledge of the truth theory follows the ability of language as a whole, not sentence by sentence. -> Holism. Knowledge of the propositions is not available in lists. >Lists, >Knowledge, >Propositional knowledge.
