Now by this I mean no more than that the training is of a peculiar kind, roughly speaking one analogous to that described in 30). I will refer to a training more or less similar to that in 30) as a “''general training''”. General trainings form a family whose members differ greatly from one another. The kind of thing I'm thinking of now mainly consists: ''a'') of a training in a limited range of actions, ''b'') of giving the pupil a lead to extend this range, & ''c'') of random exercises and tests. After the general training the order is now to consist in giving him a sign of this kind:

Note, we are not saying “''what a rule is''” but just giving different applications of the word “rule”; & we certainly do this by giving applications of the words “expression of a rule”.
