For example, the proposition “a particular is particular” is considered as true on both the primary predication and the common predication. On the other hand, absolute non-existent is on one occasion regarded as true, but on other occasion as false according to the primary predication. This apparent incoherence has caused a tangle in explaining the above-mentioned predications. Some philosophers consider the difference between subject and predicate as the origin of the contrasts in dispute. Examining the objections of this speculation, the present essay presents a new solution based on distinctions between concept and mental being, and between external extention and mental extention, which completely removes the apparent incoherence.  ", issn="1735-9791", doi="10.22091/pfk.2005.321", url="https://pfk.qom.ac.ir/article_321.html" }
