Abstract
Inferential expressivism (Incurvati and Schlöder 2024) is an approach to meaning which combines elements of the expressivist and inferentialist programmes in the theory of meaning. In this talk, I will first give a brief overview of the basic ingredients of inferential expressivism. I will then present some work in progress on applications of inferential expressivism to deontic modality and, if time permits, to metaphysical modality.
