在语境中使用一个词所表达的概念往往与其词汇编码的语境无关的意义不同：它可能比词汇意义更具体或更普遍(或两者的组合)。掌握意图概念涉及到一个语用过程，即在与话语的其余部分以及与语境信息的互动中，对词汇意义进行关联驱动的调整或调整。这里讨论的问题是词义调整的语用过程的输入的性质，即词类的站立(编码)意义的性质。词汇意义是概念性的，因此是可直接表达的这一普遍假设受到了挑战，并提出了用非概念性术语解释词型意义的优点。
The concept expressed by the use of a word in a context often diverges from its lexically encoded context-independent meaning: it may be more specific or more general (or a combination of both) than the lexical meaning. Grasping the intended concept involves a pragmatic process of relevance-driven adjustment or modulation of the lexical meaning in interaction with the rest of the utterance and with contextual information. The issue addressed here is the nature of the input to the pragmatic process of meaning adjustment, that is, the nature of the standing (encoded) meaning of the word type. The widespread assumption that lexical meaning is conceptual, hence directly expressible, is challenged and a case made for the merits of an account of word type meaning in non-conceptual terms.
