In this paper, I will begin by briefly explaining both what defines a natural kind term and what the description theory of the meaning and reference of natural kind terms is. I will then proceed to outline Hilary Putman’s argument where his main goal is to defeat the descriptive theory and provide a thesis of that of the following, only one being true, and not both: knowing the meaning of a term is just a matter of being in a certain psychological state, and that the meaning of a term determines
