Gottlob Frege on Implication - Dictionary of Arguments

IV 58
Hypothetical Judgment/law/Frege: a hypothetical judgement consists of compound sentences and brings together two thoughts, not two judgments. E.g. "If a number is less than 1, then ...". Context: context is produced by an indeterminate part: e.g. a number. The subsentences have no sense in themselves (no complete thought). On the other hand: if the common thing is a name: e.g. "Napoleon, who recognized the danger, led ..." - here there are two complete thoughts. Hence the meaning, also of the subordinate clauses, is a truth value (true or false). ((s) "Napoleon..." is not a hypothetical judgment.) > relative clause
, >Clauses.
