Hartshorne distinguishes between "monadic or non-relative predicates" and "relative predicates" ("The Divine Relativity and Absoluteness: A Reply": 32; cf. also 58 in the same essay, where he distinguishes between "relational" and "monadic" predicates).

Isn't it fair to suppose that just as "non-relative" predicates can also be said to be "monadic -- presumably in Peirce's sense of the term -- so "relative" (or "relational") predicates could, quite properly, also be said to be "dyadic" -- again, in Peirce's sense of the term?
