Abstract

Questions about the nature of truth are as old as philosophy itself. Recently, however, there has been a resurgence of interest in issues surrounding the obvious that it is something that applies to the things, we think and say. Many of relationship between truth and the world. What is truth? On the one hand, it seems our beliefs about the world, and sentences describing it are, we think, true. On the other hand, it seems intimately connected with the world we think and speak about, for it is in virtue of the way the world is that many of our sentences and beliefs are true. The purpose of this study is to discuss the issues mentioned and try to make clear the relationship between truth and reality.
