on certainty 345

345. If I ask someone “what colour do you see at the moment?”, in order that is, to learn what colour there is there at the moment, I cannot at the same time question whether the person I ask understands English, whether he wants to take me in, whether my own memory is not leaving me in the lurch as to the names of colours, and so on.



yes – you can only ask one question at a time
