Disjunction - Disjunction

Japanese: 選言 - せんげん
Disjunction - Disjunction
〘noun〙 (translation of disjunction) In traditional formal logic, a sentence form in which two or more predicates connected by the conjunction "or" are connected to one subject. For example, "Mr. A is either the eldest son or the second son." In modern logic, a proposition that asserts that at least one of two propositions is true is called a disjunction of the first two. *Logic (1916) <Hayami Ko> 1 "Disjunction (or Disjunctive) A is either B or C."
