The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the natural logic program which invents logics in natural language. This study presents two logics: a logical system called d R(∀,∃) containing transitive verbs and a more expressive logical system R(∀,∃, IA) containing both transitive verbs and intersective adjectives.

The paper offers three different set-theoretic semantics which are equivalent for the logics.
