1 Answer

4 votes

Answer:

The correspondence theory in its simplest form says that truth is a connection to reality. To be true is to accurately describe.

The traditional formulation of the theory is for example, it is true that some dogs bark if the proposition "Some dogs bark" corresponds with the fact that some dogs bark.
