Kevin Dorst (2019) uses the ‘manifest unassertability’ of conditionals of the form ‘If I don’t know p, then p’ as a new motivation for the KK thesis. In this paper we show that his argumentation is misguided. Plausible heuristics offer a compelling and nuanced explanation of the relevant infelicity data. Meanwhile, Dorst relies on tools that, quite independently of KK, turn out to be rather poor predictors of the infelicity of indicative conditionals.

不恰当的条件句和 KK

Kevin Dorst(2019)使用“如果我不知道 p,则 p”形式的条件句的“明显不可断言性”作为 KK 论文的新动机。在本文中,我们表明他的论点是错误的。合理的启发法为相关的不幸福数据提供了令人信服且细致入微的解释。与此同时,Dorst 所依赖的工具与 KK 完全无关,但事实证明这些工具对于指示性条件句的不恰当性的预测效果相当差。
