Understanding formal semantics terminology and nomenclature.
Post Body
Hi! I was making my way through Angelika Kratzer's Modals and Counterfactuals recently when I discovered that some sections of it contain nomenclature that is not simply quantified first-order logic plus set theory. Viz.:
[[[(whenever α)β]]g = λs [[ [[α]]g → ∃s' ∃s'' [s' ≤ s & s'' ≤ s & [[α]]g ...
I assume you get the picture. I'm wondering if there would be a nice source book anywhere that would at least clue me into what the parts of this that aren't simply QFL set theory mean.
