Abstract
Problems of language analysis are of interest to both linguists and logicians. One of the most important differences between the linguistic and the logical analysis of language is the fact that linguistic investigations are concerned with natural languages whereas logicians study artificial ones. Those artificial languages constructed by logicians are simple in comparison with very involved and complicated natural languages. The relatively greater simplicity of the languages studied by logicians enables them to give a clearer account of the structure of those languages than is possible in the case of the analysis of complex natural languages.
