Content: content is that part of a statement, which can be expressed by another statement, which differs in a respect from the original statement, e.g. it uses other expressions with the same reference. That, in which the second statement deviates belongs then to the vocabulary, to the syntax or grammar, the matching can be called content. See also Semantic content, Conceptual content, Mental content.

Gottlob Frege on Content - Dictionary of Arguments

Berka I 85
Content/Frege: content is the function of an argument. A concept is formed in the following way: the subject is the argument and the predicate is the function.
>Subject
, >Predicate, >Function.
Berka I 86
Not every content can be assessed: e.g. the idea/concept of a house.
>Judgment, >Imagination, >Negation.
Berka I 87
Affirmation/Frege: affirmation refers to the whole of content and judgment.
Berka I 88
Against: negation/denial: negation is part of the content, not of the judgment.
Berka I 87
Def Conceptual Content/Frege/(s): conceptual content is common to passive and active. ((s) From which the same set of conclusions can be drawn.) This has nothing to do with the distinction function/argument.
Berka I 96
Content Identity/Frege: content identity differs from the contingency (implication) in that it refers to names, not to contents. Two names have the same content. >Proper names.
Problem: characters can sometimes stand for themselves, sometimes they stand for a content. E.g. in geometry, the same point can have different meanings. Therefore, you must use two different names first to show this later. Different names are not a mere formality.
Spelling: with a triple bar ≡. This refers to conceptual content. Also content identity needs its own character, because the same content can be determined differently.(1)
