Consider Shlenker et al.s' (2013) pragmatic analysis of Campbell's monkeys communication system. This analysis is based n the notion of scalar alternatives. Imagine that the vocalization shark exists in Campbell's monkey's communication system which means “The speaker is alert to a disturbance whose source has big ears”. What is the meaning of shark-oo predicted to be under the pragmatic analysis? (Assume that there do exist big-ears threats in the relevant geographical area.)
