Summary/Abstract: This text is an attempt at a preliminary outline of the factors that motivate the denotational identity of argument content in the predication structure as well as the consequences of this identity for the shape of the sentence expression which is a realization of such a structure. The first question this analysis attempts to answer concerns the structure of predicative concepts that constitute the predication structure with arguments of the identical content? The second question the cursory analysis done attempts to answer concerns the manner, in which the identity existing on the semantic structure level is signaled on the surface, in the formal structure.
