Two-dimensionalism

or "the clear, drinkable liquid that fills oceans and lakes". The thing picked out by the primary intension of "water" could have been otherwise. For example, on some other world where the inhabitants take "water" to mean

because we can imagine another substance XYZ with watery properties, but it's not 2-possible. Hence, objections to conceivability implying possibility are unfounded when these words are used more carefully.

The reason Chalmers employs two-dimensional semantics is to avoid objections to conceivability implying possibility. For instance, it's claimed that we can conceive of water not having been

Chalmers then advances the following "two-dimensional argument against materialism". Define P as all physical truths about the universe and Q as a truth about

Let "1-possible" refer to possibility relative to primary intension and "2-possible" relative to secondary intension. 237:, which entails that it is impossible for a proposition to fail to be a priori given that it is necessary. This can be proven as follows: If a proposition 54:? Two-dimensionalism provides an analysis of the semantics of words and sentences that makes sense of this possibility.
