Berkowitz Linguistic Structure: Wittgenstein’s view about the Nature, Limit & Function of Logical Constants & Quantifiers. 2. For Ludwig Wittgenstein to really provide us with a thorough account of propositions he needs to explain the nature of logical constants.

For him, (negations, conditionals, connectives, conjuncts, disjuncts, etc) are not constituents of the proposition but are instead

Contradictions in Fuzzy Logic Kamp ([qtd. in Sauerland]) argue that it is absurd that p ∧ p has the same truth value as p ∧ ¬p if p is 0.5, and the latter statement cannot have a truth value of 0.5, becauses "how could a logical contradiction be true to any degree?" (qtd. in Sauerland 187). Sauerland ([year]) however thinks that this is not the case: if p contains a vague variable, the statement does not need to be a contradiction to be intuitive, e.g. What I did was smart and not smart, or Bea

The argument Jefferson constructed was one made with all the wrong

of philosophy that knowledge can only be gained through empirical experience. The logical positivists applied this idea to language, and came up with the verification principle. This idea, also put forward by A. J. Ayer, the main British exponent of logical positivism, is basically that only two types of statement are meaningful. The first is analytic statements (a priori), which are logical statements that justify themselves, for example "1 + 1 = 2" or "all bachelors are

A logical fallacy is false or misinforming opinions that prove nothing. At times fallacies seem to be sound, and often have lots of persuasive control, even after it’s undoubtedly exposed as being untrue. Fallacies are not always deliberate, still yet we find them all over the place, like commercials for an example. Though there are several logical fallacies, four logical fallacies generally found in advertising are amphiboly, appeal to authority, appeal to emotion, and non sequitur (logic). Fallacies
