• @article{Marconi2013-MARPHA-2,abstract = {Externalism about artifactual words requires that (a) members of an artifactual word's extension share a common nature, i.e. a set of necessary features, and (b) that possession of such features determines the word's extension independently of whether the linguistic community is aware of them (ignorance) or can accurately describe them (error). However, many common artifactual words appear to be so used that features that are universally shared among members of their extensions are hard to come by, and even fewer can be plausibly regarded as necessary; morevoer, it is highly doubtful that a speaker could manage to refer to kind A while being utterly ignorant of the role the As play in the A-producing community, and it is no less doubtful that an artifactual word that was used to refer to certain objects would keep referring to them (and be regarded as having referred to them) once it has been shown that the associated description is utterly false of such objects, the reason being that we could easily make things that do fit the associated description. Against generalized externalism, it is suggested that artifactual words come in (at least) three different semantic varieties: a few have an externalist semantics, others have an internalist semantics, still others have neither but rather behave as ''family names'' in Wittgenstein's sense},title = {Pencils Have a Point: Against General Externalism About Artifactual Words},number = {3},year = {2013},volume = {4},pages = {497--513},journal = {Review of Philosophy and Psychology},author = {Diego Marconi}}@
