LessonsChapter Two: Propositions, Categorical and Conditional Forms, and Their PartsQuiz

«وأما الشرطية: فما لا يكون فيه ذلك الحكم»
A conditional proposition is one in which that direct categorical judgment is not made in the same way.

The primary judgment in a conditional does not simply affirm “the sun has risen” or “daylight exists” in isolation. It asserts a relation between two propositional contents.

“If the sun rises, daylight exists” links one statement to another conditionally. That link itself may be correct or incorrect, making the entire expression a proposition.
