But a name remains distinct from the fact or the concept, and this is a distinction that transpires within the judgment as such; since the subject is in general the determinate term and more, therefore, of an immediate existent, whereas the predicate expresses the universal, the essence or the concept, the subject as such is at first only a kind of name; what it is, is first enunciated only by the predicate which contains being in the sense of the concept When we ask, 'What is this?,' or 'What kind of plant is this?,' the being we are enquiring about is often just a name, and once we learn this name, we are satisfied that we now know what the fact is.
