designata

Noun

designatum (plural designata)

1. That which is named or designated by a linguistic term.
   • I am inclined to hold that if there is a plurality of objects that fall under the designatum of a term, then that should be sufficient (though not necessary) to conclude that that is a general term, even when it has a singular occurrence in a sentence.2007, Ilhan Inan, “Rigid general terms and essential predicates”, in Philosophical Studies, volume 140, number 2, page 225
