 Given the Finean distinction, natural language ontology will be part of naïve metaphysics. The term “naïve metaphysics” is potentially misleading, though, when applied to natural language ontology. The ontology implicit in natural language needs to be distinguished from the ontology of what non-philosophers naively think there is or accept upon (naive) reflection (the subject matter of folk metaphysics). The ontology of natural language, by contrast, is the ontology that competent speakers of the language implicitly accept, whether philosophers or non-philosophers and whether they would naively or not so naively agree with it upon reflection. For that reason, this entry stays with the better established and less misleading Strawsonian term “descriptive metaphysics”, suitably understood.
