WHAT DOES LOGICAL TRUTH MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Logical truth

Logical truth is one of the most fundamental concepts in logic, and there are different theories on its nature. A logical truth is a statement which is true and remains true under all reinterpretations of its components other than its logical constants. It is a type of analytic statement. All of philosophical logic can be thought of as providing accounts of the nature of logical truth, as well as logical consequence. Logical truths are truths which are considered to be necessarily true. This is to say that they are considered to be such that they could not be untrue and no situation could arise which would cause us to reject a logical truth. However, it is not universally agreed that there are any statements which are necessarily true. A logical truth is considered by some philosophers to be a statement which is true in all possible worlds. This is contrasted with facts which are true in this world, as it has historically unfolded, but which is not true in at least one possible world, as it might have unfolded.
