Frege-Geach problem

English Expressivism#The Frege–Geach problem Etymology Named after Peter Geach and Gottlob Frege; Geach developed the concept from Frege's writings. Noun en philosophy The problem that, by subscribing to expressivism, one accepts that the meaning of (say) "it is wrong to tell lies" is different from the meaning of the "it is wrong to tell lies" part of the conditional "if it is wrong to tell lies, then it is wrong to get your little brother to lie", and that therefore expressivism is an inadequate explanation for moral language. Translations the problem that expressivism cannot account for moral language in embedded contexts Japanese: ja フレーゲ＝ギーチ問題 Furēge-Gīchi mondai Category:English eponyms
