This work focuses on the relatively neglected grammar of names, thus
crucially on their morphology and syntax. These areas have not aroused the
kind of interest and controversy associated with (the status of) the semantics
of names. The study of names made here, however, assumes that grammar is
notional, or ontologically based. Thus we shall explore the association
between the structure and distribution of names and their semantics and
pragmatics. I shall indeed be suggesting that the conjunction of names and
notional grammar is particularly appropriate and illuminating. (Первый абзац Введения)
