Semantics versus Pragmatics of Presuppositions
[edit]Linguists such as Grice would argue that there is no semantics of presuppositions. He claims that the presuppositions arise from the speaker, not the actual words he utters, so the meanings of the words and phrases can not carry that extra information. It is the context in which the utterance is made that will provide the supplementary information for the listener to be able to interpret the speaker's utterance correctly.
