Propositions in SL are capitalised Roman letters (non-bold) with or without natural number subscripts. We may call these proposition letters. For example:
```plain
P, Q, R...P1, Q1, R1...
```
$$
P, Q, R,... P_{1}, Q_{1}, R_{1}, ...
$$
The connectives of SL are the five truth-functional connectives:
```
~, &, v, ⊃, ≡
```
$$
\lnot, \land, \lor, \rightarrow, \leftrightarrow
$$
The punctuation marks of SL consist in the left and right parentheses:
```
( )
```
$$
( )

### Grammar
1. Every proposition letter is a proposition.
1. If **P** is a proposition then **~P** is a proposition.
1. If **P** and **Q** are propositions, then **(P & Q)** is a proposition
1. If **P** and **Q** are propositions, then **(P v Q)** is a proposition
1. If **P** and **Q** are propositions, then **(P ⊃ Q)** is a proposition
1. If **P** and **Q** are propositions, then **(P ≡ Q)** is a proposition
1. Every letter in a statement is a proposition.
1. If $P$ is a proposition then $\lnot P$ is a proposition.
1. If $P$ and $Q$ are propositions, then $P \land Q$ is a proposition
1. If $P$ and $Q$ are propositions, then $P \lor Q$ is a proposition
1. If $P$ and $Q$ are propositions, then $P \rightarrow Q$ is a proposition
1. If $P$ and $Q$ are propositions, then $P \leftri **(P ≡ Q)** is a proposition
1. Nothing is a proposition unless it can be formed by repeated application of clauses 1-6
