We propose a
Proof
−
Theoretic
Semantics
(
PTS
) for a (positive) fragment
$E^{+}_{0}$
of
Natural
Language
(
NL
) (English in this case). The semantics is intended [7] to be incorporated into actual grammars, within the framework of
Type
−
Logical
Grammar
(
TLG
) [12]. Thereby, this semantics constitutes an alternative to the traditional
model
−
theoretic
semantics
(
MTS
), originating in Montague’s seminal work [11], used in
TLG
.
