Sumario:In this paper I present a formal treatment for the notion “there is (some) truth in that”. I adopt a first order language and assume a bivalued interpretation. I claim that “there is (some) truth in x” behaves as a partial and not transparent truth attribution. I argue that it should be modeled using a predicate rather than an operator. I introduce a predicate and consider three alternative criteria to characterize its semantics. I prove that, with any of the criteria, the predicate trivializes any classical theory that adopts a strong self-referential procedure.
