Sorry, didn't Kant write in German? Where would he find use for
the English word "categorial" in German?
Anyway, his English translators tend to render one of his expressions
as "the categorical imperative", but even that may just be in the few
translations I happen to have encountered.
(I'll not address Husserl.)

the unquoted instance in this very sentence) as misspelled :-) . -- F.)
