Abstract: The distinction between fictional discourse and factual discourse captures some platitudes concerning our everyday linguistic practice. One's mastery of existential statements parallels one's mastery of the distinction between fictional and factual discourse and between discourse within the fiction and discourse about the fiction and one's capacity of engaging in games of make-believe.
