Acceptable analyticities, i.e. contradictions or tautologies, constitute problematic evidence for the idea that language includes a deductive system. In recent discussion, two accounts have been presented in the literature to explain the available evidence. According to one of the accounts, grammatical analyticities are accessible to the system but a pragmatic strengthening repair mechanism can apply and prevent the structures from being actually interpreted as contradictions or tautologies. The proposed data, however, leaves it open whether other versions of the meaning modulation operation are required. Novel evidence we present argues that a loosening version of the repair mechanism must be available. Our observation concerns acceptable lexical contradictions that cannot be rescued if only a strengthening version of the pragmatic strategy is available.

可接受的分析，即矛盾或重言式，构成了语言包括演绎系统这一观点的有问题的证据。在最近的讨论中，文献中提出了两个解释可用证据的方法。根据其中一项说明，系统可以使用语法分析功能，但是可以采用务实的强化修复机制，并防止结构实际被解释为矛盾或重言式。但是，无论是否需要其他版本的含义调制操作，建议的数据都将保留。我们目前提出的新证据表明，必须有宽松的修复机制。
