Abstract
In this contribution we present a translation from Moss’ natural logic to Sommers’ term logic by using a tableaux method. The result shows Sommers’ term logic lies beyond the Peano-Frege, Church-Turing, and Aristotle frontiers while maintaining the inferential and expressive powers of the systems that inhabit such limits. This suggests that term logic might be instrumental for a natural logic project.
