Imperative: is "oblique speech" (German: ungerade Rede) and has no "meaning" only "sense". Command and wish are no thoughts, but on the same level. The "meaning" of the instruction sentence: is the command. >Fregean sense, >Fregean meaning, >Oblique speech (= quote to the point), >Thought, >Intention._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
