SUMMARY:Expressive inferences
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Some predicates carry special kinds of inferences: s
 ubjective predicates carry acquaintance inferences (AIs)\; evaluative pred
 icates carry practical inferences (PIs). I show that these inferences patt
 ern in parallel ways\, which calls for a unified treatment. Moreover\, the
 se inferences can hardly be classified under standard categories\, such as
  entailment\, presupposition\, or implicature. I argue that existent accou
 nts of the AI can hardly be extended to PI\; and that the only extant acco
 unt of both inferences is ad-hoc. In contrast\, I aim to derive both infe
 rences from a lexical-expressivist view about the relevant predicates\, to
 gether with a general constraint on modals\, evidentials\, and proposition
 al attitude verbs.
