Abstract(in English) According to Iten(2005), ⅰ) "Word - World" Relations; ⅱ) Semantic Analysis of Truth, are two cores of truth conditional semantics. Iten(2005) espouses the first issue, while gives a negative argument to the second, further claims that successfully constructed a non-truth conditional semantics theory with Conceptual/Procedural Meaning Distinction by following Blakemore(1987). This present paper considers that the argument which given by Iten(2005) was not success, besides cause Semantics/Pragmatics Distinction, and Descriptive/Normative Distinction controversies in the relevance theoretic framework. This present paper end with an appendix by considering that criticize truth conditional semantics for criticize semantics externalism (also the converse).
