Validity, Satisfiability, Models
•A sentence is valid if it is true for all possible interpretations.
•A sentence is satisfiable if there exists a “satisfying” interpretation (i.e. an interpretation for which the sentence is true).
•An interpretation which satisfies a sentence is a model of that sentence.
