For, in the classical discussion of properties, the nominalization of predicates such as is wise into nouns fit to refer, has been taken to count in favor of universal realism.
This tradition dates back to Aristotle, for whom the predicate term negation in Socrates is not-wise, affirming that the predicate not-wise holds of Socrates, yields a false statement if Socrates does not exist, while the predicate denial Socrates isn't wise denies that the predicate wise holds of Socrates and is true if Socrates does not exist.

For example, in ϕx, in which both variables are free, each variable must be replaced appropriately if a proposition of the form in question (such as "Socrates is wise") is to be obtained; but in (∃x)ϕx, in which x is bound, it is necessary only to replace ϕ by a predicate in order to obtain a complete proposition (e.g., replacing ϕ by "is wise" yields the proposition "Something is wise").
