• Monadic predicate calculus — In logic, the monadic predicate calculus is the fragment of predicate calculus in which all predicate letters are monadic (that is, they take only one argument), and there are no function letters. All atomic formulae have the form P(x), where P… …   Wikipedia

• monadic — A predicate is monadic if it requires only one singular term to make a sentence: ‘…is mortal’ is monadic. The contrast is with n adic predicates (relational predicates) that require n places to be filled where n > 1. The monadic predicate… …   Philosophy dictionary
