Did you mean intention (french spelling) is a translation for list comprehension ? First time I've seen it used ( https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_en_compr%C3%A9hension https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_en_compr%C3%A9hension ) Sorry if I misunderstood.
- sametmax 8y agoNot 'intention' (will/wish), but 'intension' (as the opposite of extension: see https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intension_et_extension https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intension_et_extension). "comprehension list" in french can be translated to "liste en intension"
- dorfsmay 8y agoInteresting, the word exist in English too, but I cannot find anywhere how it is supposed to be pronounced, in either language.
- misterkeys 8y agoUnfortunately, at least in English, it's pronounced the same as intention. This causes brief confusion in introductory logic and semantics classes everywhere.
- makapuf 8y agoTIL, thanks. It seems to be the kind of perfectly adapted idiom (that no one uses or understand).
