Abstract

In the semantics elaborated by G. Frege the most important notion, according to his logical concerns, is that of reference –“Bedeutung”. However, no less important are the notions of sense –“Sinn”– and thought –“Gedanke”–, which are among the most fruitful and controversial ones in the work of Frege. The aim of this paper is to briefly characterise these notions, establishing the close connection that exists between them and language, and also between thought and truth, and paying attention to the role that ontology plays in Frege’s semantics
