N2 - We refute Miller's objection that calculation of verisimilitude is not translation invariant. Miller wrongly assumes that the counting is based on expressions, but verisimilitude has to be count on items the expressions of theories signify. We claim that these items are Tichý's constructions, structured ways how to reach certain object. We view constructions as concepts. Before we count verisimilitude we must first convert theories onto basic concepts of the one and the same conceptual system. We also conceive possible worlds as certain structures consisting in basic concepts of the same conceptual system. Miller's argument stems from unjustified ignorance of this entirely inevitable reconciliation of concepts.
