Pampanga.

two statements can be combined to form a
biconditional statement by using the phrase if and only
if.

You are a native Kapampangan if and only if you are born

in Pampanga.
CONVERSE, INVERSE, AND
CONTRAPOSITIVE STATEMENTS
The INVERSE of a conditional is formed by negating the hypothesis and the
conclusion.
Examples:
Statement: If p, then q.
Inverse: If not p, then not q.

Statement: If you are a native Kapampangan, then you are born in Pampanga.
Inverse: If you are not a native Kapampangan, then you are not born in
Pampanga
