Abstract
In this paper I respond to some provocative remarks by Zhang and Zhang (2017) and I argue that their claim that there is no compatibility between Default semantics and Relevance theory is exaggerated. In Capone (2011a,b), I provided a synthetic approach which did not presuppose that we necessarily slavishly adhere to all details of Jaszczolt's or Relevance Theory. In that paper, I tried to make sense of the idea of modularity of mind. However, those ideas could also be integrated into a theory of neural networks. In this paper, I point out, however briefly, that it makes sense to connect the generalizations offered by Default Semantics with the role played by Broca’ s area in cognition (here I follow Pennisi and Falzone's (2016) ideas) (see also Capone, 2017).
