Abstract
In this chapter I shall look at a very important and pervasive respect in which context can affect interpretation. That is by supplying a relation which can operate on parts of the meaning of the sentence to produce other indices. I shall look first at a use of the possesssive which contrasts with that introduced on p.29.
