| Truth conditions: the conditions under which statements, propositions, assertions, etc. are true are called truth conditions. In order to understand a sentence, according to some theories, it is sufficient to know its truth conditions. (Compare M. Dummett, Ursprünge der analytischen Philosophie Frankfurt, 1992, p. 20). According to these theories, one can understand not only true but also false sentences. See also semantics, sentence meaning, understanding, truth, meaning._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.

John R. Searle on Truth Conditions - Dictionary of Arguments
II 87 Truth conditions/Searle: there are a) certain fulfilment conditions and b) certain phenomenal properties of the experience. Fulfilment conditions: that there is a yellow wagon, and that this wagon causes the experience. Phenomenal properties: phenomenal properties determine the fulfilment conditions - so the experience determines the conditions. --- IV 101 Truth condition/Searle: truth conditions have a literal meaning - but only against background assumptions. >Terminology/Searle, >Truth/Searle, >Fullfillment condition/Searle, >Fullfillment/Searle._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
