Other philosophers, such as Richard (2004) and McFarlane (2007), have similar concerns about comparative adjectives in attitude ascriptions, but they (unlike Cappelen and Lepore) conclude that the truth of a sentence must be relativized to untraditional parameters, such as standards of wealth. ❋ Unknown (2009)
