The sentence “Deаd rаpper fired first shоt” is interesting becаuse….
Pleаse diаgnоse if the relаtiоnship between these sentences is a presuppоsition, an entailment, an implicature, or none of these. A presupposition is an assumption about what is already mutually taken to be true “prior” to the utterance. An entailment is an inference which logically follows from a sentence. An implicature is a context-sensitive inference drawn by reasoning about why the speaker said what they said, vs. what they could have said and didn’t say. An implicature can be cancelled, meaning that the speaker can coherently retract/deny the implicature; whereas it is incoherent for a speaker to try to cancel entailments or presuppositions. A presupposition survives under negation or if you turn the sentence into a question, whereas an entailment does not. It’s kind of late. / I want to go home. I run every day. / I exercise every day. Some students did well on the test. / Not all students did well on the test. Some students did well on the test. / There was a test; there are students. Teaching is rewarding, research is interesting, conferences are fun, and applying to jobs is part of the process. / The speaker doesn’t enjoy applying to jobs. It’s fixin’ to rain. / The speaker is from the south. As for whether I liked the movie -- the costumes were stunning. / I didn’t like the movie. I’m from Atlanta. / I’m from the USA.
