Need some help putting these two examples of natural language into sentence logic. For reference, use the transcription guide below:



D = you think so; E = I think so; F = it is true




  1. If you think so, I think so. And if I think so, you think so. (is it possible to express this using just one connective?)


  2. Unless it isn’t true, you don’t think so.

          1. This sentence is a conjunction of two conditionals:


          D→E∧E→D



          You can put it into a single connective by using CB: D↔E




          1. I was taught that "unless" is a flag for the "or" connective, so I will write my answer like that. If you rewrite the sentence to "You don’t think so unless it isn’t true", then the logic you get is:


          ~F∨~D
