   Jun 12, 2022 · If natural language is not fully logical, how could it be possible to explain something purely logical through it? Well, simply put, "purely logical" is a suspect term. However, let's say what you mean is a formal, that is syntactically abstract, artificial language of logic as used in formal systems .

   In linguistic semantics, there are two ways of adapting models to the interpretation of natural language: either natural language expressions are translated into logical notation (indirect interpretation) or models directly assign denotations to them (direct interpretation).

   • 5.3.1 Using First Order Predicate Logic for NL Semantics. Formal logics have a well-defined syntax, which includes the legal symbols for terms, relations, quantifiers, operators, conjunctions, and functions and how they can be combined.
   • 5.3.2 Compositionality in Logic-Based Representations. Domain independent semantics generally strive to be compositional, which in practice means that there is a consistent mapping between words and syntactic constituents and well-formed expressions in the semantic language.
   • 5.3.3 Frame Languages and Logical Equivalents. Although first order logic offers many benefits (such as well-defined semantics and sound and complete inference strategies) they have critical deficiencies when it comes to representing objects, in addition to just referring to individuals as discussed in Section 5.3.2.
   • 5.3.4 Compositionality using Frame Languages. Compositionality in a frame language can be achieved by mapping the constituent types of syntax to the concepts, roles, and instances of a frame language.

   Is logic a natural language?

   • Logical languages are then developed as formal metalanguages to natural language. Subsequent chapters address propositional logic, the syntax and semantics of (first-order) predicate logic as an extension of propositional logic, and Generalized Quantifier theory.

   What is logic in linguistics?

   • Logic is the formal modelling of inference, which involves truth-dependence between wellformed formulae of the defined language. The objective in defining such a formal language is to capture all and only the valid inferences expressible in that language, via some concept of truth with respect to a model.

   Is natural logic a theory?

   • Certainly not. Recall that natural logic is a theory, a theory about the logical structure ofnatural language sentences andthe regularities governing the notion ofa valid argument forreasoning in natural language. That is, it is a theory about the human mind, nota theory about theuniverse.

   Why do natural languages require multiple levels of representation?

   • Broadly, speaking, there are two common kinds of claim for the necessary divergence of syntactic and semantic structures, necessitating multiple levels of representation. One is that the interpretation of natural languages requires representations of meaning that are not directly interpretable in terms of denotations.
