order of entailment must be located in the background. Moreover, the entailment in these thickened sentences is
one-way because if The Priory’s charge was to reveal the
heir, the heir must be hidden . However, if the heir is
hidden , The Priory‟s charge was not necessarily to reveal
the hair; their charge could also be anything else. So, entailment only happens from one direction.
52. Leigh Teabing: Robert, no words. On your knees. Do it. No, I mean it.
Down. Not you. No, my dear, you…
Youre my MIRACLE
, Sophie.
Youre the guardian of the Grail.
√ √
√ One-way entailment is reflected on the bold sentences
because is Naveu is the guardian of the Grail, she must be a miracle for Teabing.
However if she is Taebing’s
miracle, she does not necessarily to be the guardian of the Grail.
That is how one-way entailment occurs. Teabing stresses the word miracle as he wants to point out that
Naveu is the guardian of the Grail which becomes his miracle because Taebing has been looking for the
guardian of the Grail in his entire life. So, the order of entailment here can be seen from the stressed word.
Furthermore, miracle means the guardian of the Grail for Teabing. The flattening can be seen from this
phenomenon, which is why contexted clause is employed to detect the entailment.
53. Naveu: I have NO idea how. I DONT know the code
. And even if I did, I wouldnt tell you.
√ √
√ Teabing was asking Naveu to tell the code of the cryptex,
and she says I have no idea how which entails her following sentence I
don’t know the code. Both sentences contain entailment as Naveu does not have any idea about
the code; both sentences are paraphrase. However, the sentences are presented in negative form, so they indicate
negative entailment. Moreover, Naveu stresses the

negative forms from each sentence. It means that those negative form words are really important for Teabing to
understand. Moreover, The first sentence is the flattened form of the second one, which is why contexted clause is
used to observe the entailment.
54. Naveu: And what I saw my grandfather doing some RITUAL.
I was so frightened. √
√ √
If Naveu saw her grandfather doing some RITUAL, she must be so frightened, but if she was so frightened that
time; it does not mean that her fear was caused by her father and his ritual. As a result, one-way entailment can
be seen as the entailment only happens from one direction. The entailment happens as there is stressing order which
formulates the second sentence. The stressing is done by Naveu as she underlines that ritual is really important in
the topic of their Longdon and her conversation. As
Naveu‟s second sentence clarifies her first sentence, flattening happens, and contexted clause approach applied
to detect the occurrence of entailment.
55. Longdon: The Priory found out.
Somehow they concealed the fact that you were alive. They hid you
with the Grand Master himself who raised you as his own.
√ √
√ Both thickened sentences uttered by Longdon are
paraphrasing each other as there are two synonymous words that can be considered as clue: concealed and hid.
As a result, the entailment in both sentences is categorized as two-way entailment. Therefore, both synonymous
words also give a hint that the entailment in the sentences is ordered according to the background. In parallel,
concealed
and hid also mark that the entailment can be detected using contexted clause approach. In addition, this
approach is employed because the first sentence is flattened in the following sentence.
