A proposition implies the development of a proposal.
Proposition is the process and result of proposing . This verb, for its part, refers to making a proposal or expressing something so that other people become aware of an intention .
For example: "Clara's proposal surprised me: I asked her for a few days to make a decision about it" , "The manager suggested that I transmit my proposal to the owner of the company" , "I want to clarify that there was no proposal from of the other political parties to form a unity government .
Etymology of proposition
The etymology of proposition takes us to the Latin word propositio, which refers to the action and effect of putting forward. This Latin term, in turn, is made up of three clearly differentiated parts:
- The prefix pro- , which is synonymous with "forward" .
- The verb Ponere , which can be translated as "put."
- The suffix -ción , which is used to indicate "action and effect" .
Proposals can occur in different areas.
Uses of the concept in different areas
Depending on the context , the notion of proposition can have different specific scopes. In the field of mathematics , propositions are statements that can be true or false. The truth of the proposition may already appear demonstrated or it is precisely what is intended to be demonstrated.
For grammar , a proposition is a logical and semantic unit that has complete meaning. The term can be associated with the idea of prayer , although they have different scopes.
In all cases, a proposition can be said to be an entity that carries a truth value. It is a logical construction that is communicated through language (whether colloquial, symbolic or formal).
Philosophy maintains that the proposition is a logical product that arises from the very act of enunciation that affirms or denies something. On certain occasions, said proposition can be equivalent to an declarative sentence since it carries a single value.
Movie "An Indecent Proposal"
One of the most important films of the 90s , because it made everyone consider their morality and how far they would be willing to go for money, is "An Indecent Proposal" (known in some countries as "Indecent Proposal" ). Adrian Lyne was the one who directed this film in 1993 , which starred Demi Moore , Robert Redford and Woody Harrelson .
The story it tells is that of a couple that is going through a tough time, because their finances are truly unfortunate. His desperation reaches such a point that he decides to go to a casino to try to see if his luck changes. You will not achieve this change in games of chance, but you will achieve this change around them. And the couple will meet a wealthy gentleman who will make them an offer as unique as it is unexpected: he offers them a million dollars to pay off their debts and build a future in exchange for spending a night with the woman.
This offer will put on the table the values of marriage, the strength of their love, what they are capable of doing for money or jealousy.
