 Drawing on linguistics and philosophy of language: Several recent approaches to cp-laws explicitly draw on research in linguistics and philosophy of language. Taking into account linguistic work on generics, Nickel (2010, 2014) argues that our understanding of cp-law statements is improved if one takes them to be generics and uses the formal semantics for generics to shed light on the meaning of cp-law statements (for approaches to cp-laws deploying generics, see also Unterhuber and Schurz 2013; Unterhuber 2014; and Claveau und Girard 2019). Roberts (2014) makes contact with philosophy of language in analyzing cp-laws as vague and indexical statements about frequencies. Ward (2007), Karbasizadeh (2008) and Nickel (2014) explore the link between cp-laws and different accounts of natural kind terms.
