conditionis

Conditionis is a term used in philosophy and linguistics to denote the structured set of conditions that determine the truth value, outcome, or acceptability of a statement, action, or state. It is a neologism built from the Latin conditio (condition) with the suffix -is, intended to capture the idea of a network of factors that collectively influence a result.

In analysis, conditionis distinguishes between necessary conditions—factors without which a proposition cannot hold—and sufficient conditions—factors that guarantee the outcome. It also encompasses contingent or background conditions that modify how a claim applies across different contexts.

In philosophy and logic, conditionis provides a framework for describing multi-condition dependencies, causal claims, and counterfactual scenarios. It helps articulate how varying a subset of conditions can alter the truth status of a proposition without changing others.

In linguistics, the term is used to discuss conditional sentences and their truth conditions under presupposed or background conditions. In empirical modeling, conditionis can guide scenario analysis by enumerating environmental, situational, or procedural factors that affect results.

The term is not widely standardized and is primarily encountered in theoretical discussions or as a terminological proposal. See also: condition, necessary condition, sufficient condition, conditional sentence, modal logic, causality.
