Alfred Tarski on Terminology - Dictionary of Arguments

I 451
Def structural-descriptive name/Tarski: ((s) different category than the quotation names): describe, of what words the expression, designated by the name, consists and of which characters each individual word consists and in what order they follow one another - goes without quotation marks.
Method: introduce single names for all letters and other characters ((s) no quotation names).
E.g. for letters f, j, P, etc.: Ef, Jay, Pee,
E.g. to the quotation name ""snow"" ((s) quotation marks twice) corresponds the structural-descriptive name: the word that consists of the six consecutive letters Es, En, O, double-u - ((s) letter names without quotation marks).
Berka I 454
Def Quotation function/Tarski: the in Tarski schema (or variants) occurring expression ""p"" (quotes twice) must be regarded as a function whose argument is a propositional variable and the values constant leading names of statements.
So the quotation marks become separate words (like the word "name") with the syntactic role of functors.
