It’s a presupposition of a very common way of thinking about context-sensitivity in language that the semantic contribution
made by a bit of context-sensitive vocabulary is sensitive only to features of the speaker’s situation at the time of utterance.
I argue that this is false, and that we need a theory of context-dependence that allows for content to depend not just on
the features of the utterance’s origin, but also on features of its destination. There are cases in which a single utterance
semantically conveys different propositions to different members of its audience, which force us to say that what a sentence
conveys depends not just on the context in which it is uttered, but also on the context in which it is received.
