Usage Examples English
  • Some of the logical symbols of a language (other than quantifiers) are truth-functional connectives that represent truth functions — functions that take truth values as arguments and return truth values as outputs (in other words, these are operations on truth values of sentences).
  • In the story "Good Form" from his novel "The Things They Carried", O'Brien discusses the distinction between "story-truth" (the truth of fiction) and "happening-truth" (the truth of fact or occurrence), writing that "story-truth is sometimes truer than happening-truth."
  • Religious views on truth vary both between and within religions.
  • Truth functions are functions from sequences of truth values to truth values.
  • This may well be the key to the composition's enigma. We have here a juxtaposition of an apparent truth (a pseudo-truth) and the truth itself.

  • Many of the debates regarding truth are at the crossroads of epistemology and logic.
  • However, not all commentators treat post-truth as a historically specific phenomenon discussed through implicit correspondence, coherence, or pragmatist theories of truth.
  • Instead of truth being ready-made for us, James asserts we and reality jointly "make" truth.
  • Classical propositional logic is a truth-functional logic, in that every statement has exactly one truth value which is either true or false, and every logical connective is truth functional (with a correspondent truth table), thus every compound statement is a truth function.
  • Crispin Wright is the most well-known advocate of pluralism about truth.
