Talk:Telicity: Difference between revisions

Line 7:

: One part of the quantitative aspect of this is particularly clear, the unit for used for the measurement of telicity range represents the number of steps in a given EDO. Meanwhile, I do know that when a single type of telicity is accomplished in a given EDO through the tempering of multiple commas, the EDO can be said to demonstrate "multitelicity" of that given type, the specific nature of the multitelicity being expressed by a numerical prefix, such as uni-, bi-, tri-, etcetera, attached to the word "telicity". Perhaps it can be said that telicity itself is multifaceted... --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 09:10, 20 January 2021 (UTC)

: Now that I'm really thinking about it, I'm thinking that we're actually dealing with a collection of closely intertwined properties, some of which are qualitative, others of which are quantitative. Judging from the definition of "telicity" itself as presented by the article's first paragraph, I'd say that telicity itself is ultimately a qualitative property. I mean, things like 3-to-2 telicity, 5-to-3 telicity, 5-to-2 telicity and 11-to-3 telicity are definitely qualitative. However, the details on how telicity is achieved- which are covered by ideas like "multitelicity" and "telicity range", are all quantitative things that have measurements. Does this sound right? --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 16:39, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
