| As things work out, the syntactic factors are formally the same, leaving our dualing interpretations to differ in their semantic components alone. Specifically, we have the following mappings: | | As things work out, the syntactic factors are formally the same, leaving our dualing interpretations to differ in their semantic components alone.
