Structure/Kripke: the structure is not revealed to the truth theory. We must define it in advance.
>Truth theory.
Of course, the "true structure" of a quantification over individuals is not the quantification on chains of characters and that of a universal quantification in reality existential quantification followed by universal quantification.
>Quantification, >Universal quantification, >Existential quantification.
E.g., the structure which is revealed by the recursion rules is different for "(x2)(x2 bold)" and "(x1)(x1 bold)".
And that is because of different predicates.

Def "trivial truth theory"/DavidsonVs: a trivial truth definition is one with infinitely many axioms: "T(f) ↔ f"". Kripke: this theory really does not uncover any structure but these are precisely the ones recommended by Tarski.
>Truth theory/Tarski, >Truth definition/Tarski.
