In linguistics, entailment is the relationship between two sentences where the truth of one (A) requires the truth of the other (B). This relationship is generalized below. As a tool or method to make progress, one might use the entailment concept. For example, if one recognizes that "were A true, B must be true as well", then one might usefully shift attention from some valid position (say A) to another (say B).
