Slide 7: 2. Predicates
I don’t understand I don’t know I’m in the dark That’s all Greek to me It sounds crazy I can’t tell if that’s right That rings a bell I can’t make head nor tail of it I don’t have a handle on this That feels right I catch your drift I hold these views…
It’s not clear yet
I understand
I see what you mean I get the picture My view is… This is a mess It’s too obscure
I think I’m confused
Something tells me…
There’s no I need to get a rhyme or reason grip of this to this None of this fits
