#syntactic ambiguity
- Amphiboly — A syntactic or semantic ambiguity of a sentence or statement that allows for two or more completely different logical interpretations, often due to faulty word order or lack of structural punctuation. In Kantian philosophy, the term describes an error of judgment by which a concept of pure reflection is confused with an object of empirical sensory experience.
- Amphibological — Containing an amphibology or based on it; presenting a structural syntactic ambiguity that allows for dual or contradictory interpretations due to a faulty construction of the sentence. In logic, it describes an equivocal reasoning or statement where the meaning becomes confused not due to a single word, but due to the way the terms are grammatically arranged.
- Amphibology — A speech defect or involuntary figure of speech consisting of a syntactic ambiguity of a sentence or entire statement, making it susceptible to being understood in two or more different ways. Unlike lexical equivocation, structural amphibology does not arise from the double meaning of a single term, but from the faulty combination and ordering of words in the sentence.
