(2) Semantics, considered as the process of understanding one domain (by modeling it) in terms of another, can be viewed recursively: The base case of semantic understanding -understanding a domain in terms of itself - is "syntactic understanding.” (3) An internal (or "narrow”), first-person point of view makes an external (or "wide”), third-person point of view otiose for purposes of understanding cognition.
