| 7795 | S5 has just six modalities, and all strings can be reduced to those [Girle] |
| 7787 | Possible worlds logics use true-in-a-world rather than true [Girle] |
| 7796 | Modal logics were studied in terms of axioms, but now possible worlds semantics is added [Girle] |

| 7800 | Analytic truths are divided into logically and conceptually necessary [Girle] |
| 7801 | Possibilities can be logical, theoretical, physical, economic or human [Girle] |
