Remark 2.  mKR has almost no grammatical "accidents"

(Ockham Chapter 3)

 

In designing the mKR language,

I identified "accidents" as redundant, error-correcting mechanisms

which are appropriate for spoken & written English,

but not for mKR.

 

This makes mKR closer to Ockham's mental language.

 

The only "accident" in mKR is the active-passive distinction,

which interchanges subject and object, i.e., changes the

focus/viewpoint of the proposition.

 

In mKR

number info. is specified by quantifiers

tense info. is specified by at time = t
