Marcelo Ferreira introduces formal semantics in this Portuguese-language university textbook. Starting with the relationship between sentence meaning and truth conditions, he develops tools for explaining how the meanings of smaller expressions combine to produce the interpretation of a sentence.
The chapters progress through predication, functions and lambda notation, coordination and negation, reference, quantification and further semantic constructions. Worked examples, reading suggestions and exercises connect the formal machinery with Portuguese expressions. This complete original textbook preserves its notation, diagrams, explanations, bibliography and exercises.
