Semantic Theory

Semantic Theory explores how meaning is derived from language. In the context of syntax (the structure of sentences) and formal semantics (the mathematical study of meaning), it seeks to understand how combinations of words create clear and precise meanings. By analyzing sentence structure and the relationships between words, semantic theory aims to uncover how people interpret language, convey ideas, and understand context. It bridges linguistic form with conceptual content, providing a framework for explaining how we communicate and comprehend complex ideas through language.
