Deixis and Indexicality
Closed
The Gap
No 'I,' 'you,' 'here,' 'now' — expressions anchored to utterance context.
Why It Matters
Every natural language has deixis. Every conversation requires it. Without deixis, the UL cannot ground ANY expression in a specific communicative situation.
Resolution
'I', 'here', 'now' formalized as canonical sections of bundle E → X. Speaker, location, time are coordinates of base manifold X.
