Focusing on temporality, the author presents a novel perspective on how meaning is conveyed in temporally-located utterances and discourses. The concept is framed as degrees of certainty, which are interpreted as varying levels of acceptability regarding the events referenced by the speaker. This approach challenges traditional representations and offers insights into the nuances of language and meaning in communication.
