Two sentences embedding the same name in different propositional contexts can express distinct propositions while sharing identical referential values, inverting the claimed dependency.

Dependency (in philosophical logic)(the statement is arguing that this relationship is inverted or backwards from what philosophers typically claim): The assumption that one thing relies on or is determined by another—here, the idea that meaning depends on what something refers to.
Referential values(contrasts with the meaning of a sentence; a name might refer to the same thing but have different meanings): What a word or name points to or stands for in the real world—basically, what it refers to.
proposition(Used in the context of a semantic theory sensitive to differences in subject matter.): The content expressed by a sentence, individuated at least in part by the subject matter of the sentence and the contents of its subsentential expressions.
propositional contexts(as the different places where ideas are transplanted): Different sentences or logical statements in which an idea or concept appears and is used.
