A case that raises questions about the abil- ity of possible worlds semantics to make the appropriate discrim- inations is the distinction between rigidity and direct reference, an issue deeply connected to the representation of the behaviour of two operators: 'dthat' and 'actually'. Differences between the mode of operation of 'dthat' and 'actually' have been observed, but they have not been examined in depth. Our purpose is to explore systematically to what extent the observed differences be- tween the two operators have truth conditional consequences that are formally representable in possible worlds semantics.14 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc (c) Martí, Genoveva et al., 2019http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/esSemàntica (Filosofia)VeritatSemantics (Philosophy)TruthOn 'Actually' and 'dthat': truth-conditional differences in possible worlds semanticsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6919522020-03-24info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
