Bivalence/VerificationismVsTruth Conditions/McDowell: the precondition of bivalence is wrong. If the truth value of sentences sometimes cannot be determined in principle, the claim to knowledge that it is either true or false goes beyond competence. From this it would follow that the verificationist is excluded from the point of view that sense is determined by the truth conditions.

Generality/Peirce: is essential for conclusions. Example VennVsEuler: the circles through which Euler represents relations between terms: they are icons, but they lack generality, so they cannot express sentences.
