Couldn't even understand that the term Bachelor
as stipulated to have the semantic meaning of
Bachelor(x) ≡ ~Married(x) ∧ Male(x) ∧ Adult(x) ∧ Human(x)
You mean that if Quine says something that proves that he does not know
that thing?
When Quine says that there is no such thing as expressions
of language that are true entirely on their semantic
meaning expressed in language Quine is stupidly wrong.
Where did Quine say that?
When he disagrees that analytic truth can be separately
demarcated.
Where?

No, you didn't. You only made a more clear mistake but about another

That page refers to many Quine's works, none of which has the title

It is common knowledge that Quine is most famous for
rejecting the analytic/synthetic distinction by this paper:

Yes, but not in the way you try to imply, because you just don't understand what he says. Your problem is he is talking about your knowledge and intelegence level, as you have seriouse problems with some of the basic concepts of language theory.
He does not have a clue how words acquire meaning as proved
by his failing to understand how Bachelor(x) gets its meaning.
As he says a lot about how words acquire meaning he obviously had at
least a clue. You can't quote even one sentence that you could argue
against.
Quine argues that all attempts to define and
understand analyticity are circular. Therefore,
the notion of analyticity should be rejected
https://iep.utm.edu/quine-an/
The problem is that in order to define anything you need words with
known meanings. But the meanings of undefined words are fuzzy and
ambiguous, and those meanings can only be known empirically. No
analytic knowledge can be expressed without empirical knowledge of
meanings of words.

The otherwise meaningless term Bachelor(x) is stipulated
to mean the predefined terms of Male(x) & ~Married(x) & Adult(x).
A definition can relate the otherwise meaningless symbol "Bachelor" to
the meaningless symbols "Male", "Married", and "Adult" but leaves it
otherwise meaningless.

But Minimal BASIC requires upper case letters.
