“实用主义者”的立场是对话语内容的三种划分：（i）句子的固定意义，（ii）某种程度上语用增强的意义，它捕捉了说话者明确传达的内容（遵循Sperber和Wilson，我将其标记为“显式”），以及（iii）说话者仅仅暗示的进一步间接传达的命题。在这里，我重新审视了显式的概念，询问它是如何定义的，以及显式应该做什么工作。我认为，显式得到定义在三个不同的方式，这些不同的定义可以和做拉分开。因此，显式的概念被证明是定义不清的。
‘Pragmaticist’ positions posit a three‐way division within utterance content between: (i) the standing meaning of the sentence, (ii) a somewhat pragmatically enhanced meaning which captures what the speaker explicitly conveys (following Sperber and Wilson, I label this the ‘explicature’), and (iii) further indirectly conveyed propositions which the speaker merely implies. Here I re‐examine the notion of an explicature, asking how it is defined and what work explicatures are supposed to do. I argue that explicatures get defined in three different ways and that these distinct definitions can and do pull apart. Thus the notion of an explicature turns out to be ill‐defined.
