YES and there are axioms that comprise the verbal model of the
actual world, thus Quine was wrong.

I don't care or need to know how he got to an incorrect answer.

Which you don't seem to understand what that means.

In and about formal logic there is no valid deep understanding. Only
a shallow understanding can be valid.

It turns out that ALL {true on the basis of meaning} that includes
ALL of logic and math has its entire foundation in relations between
finite strings. Some are stipulated to be true (axioms) and some
are derived by applying truth preserving operations to these axioms.
Usually the word "true" is not used when talking about uninterpreted
formal systems. Axioms and what can be inferred from axioms are called
"theorems". Theorems can be true in some interpretations and false in
another. If the system is incosistent then there is no interpretation
where all axioms are true.

foundation of {true on the basis of meaning}.
What matters is that you are not talking about those things as they
are usually spoken of. The consequence is that nobody is going to
understand you, and the consequence of that probably is that you
cannot contribute.

some of which are stipulated to have the semantic value of Boolean
true, and others derived from applying truth preserving operations
to these finite string.
Most of that doesn't require any stipulations about semantics but
can be done with finite strings and their relations. Semantics is
only needed to choose interesting problems and, if a problem can
be solved, to interprete the solution.

The only way that "dogs are animals" acquires semantic

It shouod be exactly equivalent.

Infinite sequences create more problem than they solve. For example,
you can prove that 1 = 2 with the infinite sequence

For real world things that are never required. The various
conjectures seem to require an infinite sequence of inference steps.
That is not known. There are real world problems that are not yet
solved without an infinite seqeunce of inference steps and there
remains the possibility that some of them, or one that is not yet
thought to be a problem but will be, that cannot be solved without
an infinite sequence of inference steps.

Anyway, whether real world problems are solvable without an infinite
sequence of inference steps is irrelevanto to the topic "True on the
basis of meaning".

My whole purpose with this whole thread is to show exactly how
epistemological antinomies can be recognized and rejected thus
not form the basis for any undecidability proofs or Tarski's
undefinability theorem.
There are provable sentences of the form A -> B where A is some
hypthesis and B is an epistemological antimńomy. How are these
true statments handled when B is rejected?

Every expression such that True(L,x)==false and False(L,x)==falseBut "Reject" isn't an option.
is rejected as a type mismatch error.
