III (a) 15
And/conjunction/definition/logical constants/Dummett: We get a definition of "and" from the assertion of P and the assertion of Q. - This is not circular: because for that one does not need the concept of conjunction.
E.g., like the dog that is trained to respond to a bell only together with light signal.
Or/disjunction/Problem: for "or" no such explanation in bivalent logic.
It may be that we can assert "P or Q" without being able to assert one individually without the other.
Right explanation: through the fact that makes one of two true.
Knowledge or recollection does not matter. >Logical constants.
