Gregorio Klimovsky argued against syntactical analyses of the notion of language. In this paper I examine his arguments, noting their links with recent discussions of universal expressibility, and raise some plausible objections. Afterwards I adopt a general approach to the issue which is incompatible with strict syntacticism but allowing an acceptable reformulation, associated with a minimalist notion of the scope of the semantic theory.

Palabras clave : Linguistic meaning; Syntacticism; Universal expressibility.
