It may mean either that A is contained in B, or that A is cc extensive with B, where A is the subject, and B the predi cate. And is the copula. It is important to bearin mind this double meaning of the sentence 'a is B.' lfit should be said that A is B' may also mean 'a contains B.' we can then say that B is contained in A; and so we are where we were before.
