In the Perihermeneias, Aristotle deals with the enunciation as a basic unit of signification that expresses the logical truth. The enunciation is composed of noun and verb; two logical categories differentiated by the fact that the verb possesses a temporal consignification (in the present tense) and also by its use as a predicate of another thing. Alfarabi and the Averroes need to seek other aristotelian texts (especially Physics, Categories and Metaphysics) so as to propound a coherent explanation of the Stagirite's words.
