Content divergence(the main issue being discussed): A situation where what an experience feels like (phenomenal character) differs from what it's actually referring to (representational content).
Externalism(Philosophy of linguistics): The view that the forms of actually attested expressions — sentences, phrases, syllables, and systems of such units — are the proper object of linguistic inquiry
Inverted Earth(Philosophy of mind; thought experiment attributed to Ned Block): A thought experiment in which an individual is placed on a planet where the colors of objects are systematically inverted relative to Earth (e.g., the sky is yellow, grass is red), but the individual's visual system is also inverted so that their functional responses remain identical to those of an Earth person — used to test externalist and functionalist theories of mental content and qualia.
Representational content(as what explains how our beliefs can mean something)
