Ambuiguity vs. Vagueness
Ambiguity refers to a word or phrase that has more than one distinct meaning
e.g. bank – may refer to a financial institution or a side of a river
Vagueness – refers to a word or phrase that even within one kind of meaning does not
have a precise conditions of application which means that we know how to use the word
as it is intended but it’s not intended to have exact conditions where to apply it
e.g. word “tall” – which we may particularly use to people who are tall like the basketball
player Benjie Paras but the word tall can also be used to other people who are shorter
than him. There’s no exact measurement to say that a person is tall or not.
e.g. rich
