 takes us (again, going from right to left) from the negated sentence to an ascription of truth to that negated sentence. Thus, some sentence not being true does yield that the negation of the sentence is true, in contrast with warranted assertibility. This difference, Wright (ibid., 18) claims, reveals that, by deflationism’s own lights, the truth predicate expresses a distinct norm governing assertion, which is incompatible with the deflationary contention “that ‘true’ is only grammatically a predicate whose role is not to attribute a substantial characteristic”.
