The document defines and provides examples of sense properties, sentence types, sufficient conditions, and necessary conditions. It explains that sense properties are types of meaning in language that convey some agreed upon meaning. It gives examples of analytic, synthetic, and contradictory sentences. It also defines the four basic sentence types as declarative, imperative, interrogative, and exclamatory and provides an example of each. Sufficient conditions are criteria that guarantee a predicate applies, while necessary conditions are criteria a thing must meet to be described by a predicate.

Define and give examples of the following: sense properties, sentence
types, list of sufficient conditions, and necessary conditions.
sense properties: sense or kinds of meaning in the languages which
contain some agreement in meaning of language in used. Example: Analytic: sentence is one that is necessarily TRUE, as a result of the sense of the words in it. For example, my brother is Male. Synthetic: sentence is one which is NOT analytic, but may be either true or false, depending on the way the world is. For example, my brother is tall. Contradictory: is a sentence that is necessarily FALSE, as a result of the senses of the words in it. For example, Cats are fish. sentence types: Declarative Sentences, Imperative Sentences, Interrogative Sentence, Exclamatory Sentences. Declarative Sentences: are sentences that make a statement. They are used to express facts and thoughts, or to declare something. For example: I like freedom. Imperative Sentences: usually end with a full stop, although in some situations, they can also end with an exclamation mark. For example, look out! Interrogative Sentence: This type of statement is in the form of a question. An interrogative statement must end with a question mark and an inquiry. For example, What do you want to have for breakfast? Exclamatory Sentences: a sentence that expresses a strong emotion and ends “!”. For example, she actually won!
sufficient conditions: on the sense of a predicate is a set of conditions
(or criteria) which, if they are met by a thing, are enough in themselves to GUARANTEE that the predicate correctly describes that thing. For example: “Plane figure, four-sided, equal-sided, and containing right angles” is sufficient condition for the predicate square. necessary conditions: on the sense of a predicate is a condition (or criterion) which a thing MUST meet in order to qualify as being correctly described by that predicate. For example, square is “four sided” this is a necessary condition for the predicate square.
