English term or phrase: receive contraries
het gaat over het waar zijn van stellingen. het is van aristoteles, Categorieen, 5.4a35-4b12.

context: ... For the statement that somebody is sitting remains the same, it is because of a change in the actual thing that it comes to be true at one time and false at another. for it is not because they themselves RECEIVE anything that statements and beliefs are said to be able to RECEIVE CONTRARIES, but because of what happened to something else.
