sözlemeleri

Sözlemeleri is a Turkish term used primarily in academic contexts to denote propositions or declarative statements, especially in logic and philosophy. The form is related to sözlem, which designates a proposition or a statement that can be true or false; sözlemeleri is the plural, case-marked or possessive form used when referring to multiple propositions in a sentence, such as “the propositions” or “their propositions.”

In logic, a sözlem is an assertion that can be evaluated for truth. Individual sözlemler may be simple, like a single variable, or complex, built from connectives such as and, or, not, and implies. The study of sözlemeler encompasses how these units combine to form valid arguments, truth tables, and logical equivalences. Analysts may discuss the truth values of sözlemeler under different interpretations or models, and how consequence relations arise from sets of sözlemler.

Context and usage: The term is specialized and appears mainly in Turkish-language texts on logic, philosophy, and linguistics. In everyday Turkish, terms such as ifade or cümle are more common for “expression” or “sentence.” Sözlemeleri may thus be encountered in academic discussions of multiple propositions or in exemplifying truth-functional analysis.
