There is the idea of setting up a code or convention or dictionary between atomic sentences and capital letters.
There are compound sentences, each of which has a main connective which connects its components.
There are five sentential logical connectives:
'∼' which translates back to 'it is not the case that...'
'&' which translates back to '... and ...'
'∨' which translates back to '... or ...'
'⊃' which translates back to 'if... then ...'
'≡' which translates back to '... if and only if ...'

There is the idea of setting up a code or convention or dictionary between atomic propositions and capital letters.
There are compound propositions, each of which has a main connective which connects its components.
There are five propositional logical connectives:
'∼' which translates back to 'it is not the case that...'
'∧' which translates back to '... and ...'
'∨' which translates back to '... or ...'
'⊃' which translates back to 'if... then ...'

Tutorial 2: Symbolizing compound propositions
Topic
Logical System
9/1/12
Skills to be acquired in this tutorial:
Symbolizing compound propositions. Learning about logical connectives, and the notion of the main connective. Recognizing different constructions in English which have the same underlying logical form. Paraphrasing the English into a standard form.
Why this is useful:
It is the next step in learning how to symbolize. Main connectives are very important-- they are central to symbolization, they are central to the semantics, and they are central to derivations.
