In this framework, the connective condiiona binds two propositions, A and B, in a way that signals that B follows from A not only in the actual world but also under related possible scenarios in which A holds.
Etymology and scope: The term condIiona appears in discussions of conditionals as a shorthand for a combined
Formal characteristics: In informal semantics, one may treat A condiiona B as true in a world if
Applications: Condiiona is discussed in philosophical analyses of conditionals, in thought experiments about language, and in
