 William of Sherwood, writing from an Oxford perspective in the 1240s, identified four properties of terms: “There are four properties of terms that we intend to distinguish now … These properties are signification, supposition, copulation, and appellation” (tr. Kretzmann, p.  105).[1]  A different tradition is represented by Peter of Spain and Lambert of Auxerre, namely, that of Paris. Lambert identifies five properties of terms: “there are many properties of a term, namely, supposition, appellation, restriction, distribution, and relation … But, because signification is, as it were, the perfection of a term, and because the properties of a term are founded on signification, one ought for the sake of clarity in what follows to see at the outset what the signification of a term is and how it differs from supposition” (tr. Maloney, p.  253).[2]  In his treatment he includes ampliation (a correlative to restriction) and thereby matches the sections in Peter of Spain's Tractatus: De suppositionibus (On Suppositions), De relativis (On Anaphora), De ampliationibus (On Ampliations), De appellationibus (On Appellations), De restrictionibus (On Restrictions), De distributionibus (On Distribution).
