Identify which of the truth functions (truth tables) does not
align with your intuition or general sense of language.
Provide an example where the example provides an intuitive outcome
that is different than what the Truth Table would
suggest.
For Example The Truth Table of a Conjunction also known as
an (And) operates as follows
According to the Truth Table: A True Proposition and a True
Proposition makes the statement as a whole a True Statement
Donald Trump was a President of the United States
and He is very wealthy. These two true statements when combined
with a conjunction makes a combined True Statement.
(This is in agreement with what the Truth Table would suggest)
According to the Truth Table: A False Proposition and a
True Proposition make the statement as a whole a False
Statement
Donald Trump is the Queen of England and he is very wealthy. We
would not say that the statement as a whole was True because the
first statement is false. (This is in agreement with what the
Truth Table would suggest)
According to the Truth Table: A True Proposition and a
False Proposition make the statement as a whole a False
Statement
Donald Trump is a president of the United States and he is a
member of the middle class. We would not say that the statement as
a whole was True because the second statement is false. (This is in
agreement with what the Truth Table would suggest)
According to the Truth Table: A False Proposition and a
False position make the statement as a whole a False Statement.
Donald Trump is the Queen of England and he is a member of
the middle class. We would not say that the statement as a whole
was True because both sub-statements are false. (This
is in agreement with what the Truth Table would suggest)
So the conjunction and its Truth Functions, with all four truth
value combinations, are completely consistent with my
intuition but there are some Truth Functions where the truth
table may differ from your intuition. Find an example.
