Definition:Semantic Equivalence

Definition
Let $\mathscr M$ be a formal semantics for a formal language $\mathcal L$.

Let $\phi, \psi$ be $\mathcal L$-WFFs.

Then $\phi$ and $\psi$ are $\mathscr M$-semantically equivalent :


 * $\phi \models_{\mathscr M} \psi$ and $\psi \models_{\mathscr M} \phi$

that is, they are $\mathscr M$-semantic consequences of one another.
