Frege's system is \emph{second-order}, and was designed to formulate -the notion of an \emph{extension of a concept}. Using notation -inspired by Frege, we will write $\fregeext{x}{F(x)}$ for \emph{the extension -of the concept $F$}. This is a device which takes a \emph{predicate}, -``$F$'', and turns it into a (first-order) \emph{term}, -``$\fregeext{x}{F(x)}$''. Using this device, Frege offered the following -\emph{definition} of membership: +the notion of an \emph{extension of a concept}.\footnote{Strictly +speaking, Frege attempts to formalize a more general notion: the +``value-range'' of a function. Extensions of concepts are a special +case of the more general notion.
