Sentence: Tom is not Paul's daughter or Tom is tall.

Here the interpretation in predicate logic notation:

[[¬daughter-of-someone (Tom,Paul) v tall(Tom)]] = true

because [[¬daughter-of-someone (Tom,Paul)]]= true

because I(Tom)= <Tom>, I(Paul)= <Paul> and <Tom,Paul> is NOT a set of I(daughter-of-someone)

and [[tall(Tom)]] = false

because I(Tom)= <Tom> and <Tom> is NOT an element of I(tall).

Disjunction (v): At least one of the atomic formulae has to be true in order for the complex formula to be true.
