Polish- or Łukasiewicz's notation for logic

The table below shows the core of w:Jan Łukasiewicz's notation for w:sentential logic, or Propositional Logic. The "conventional" notation did not become so until the 1970s and 80s. Some letters in the Polish notation table means a certain word in Polish, as shown:

Concept	Conventional notation	Polish notation	Polish / English word
w:Negation	$\neg ϕ$	Nφ	negation (No)}
Conjunction	$ϕ \land ψ$	Kφψ	conjunction
w:Disjunction	$ϕ \lor ψ$	Aφψ	alternate OR=disjunction
w:Material conditional	$ϕ \to ψ$	Cφψ	implication
w:Biconditional	$ϕ \leftrightarrow ψ$	Eφψ	equivalence'
w:Falsum	$⊥$	O	False value
w:Sheffer stroke	$ϕ ∣ ψ$	Dφψ	Sheffer stroke
Possibility	$◊ ϕ$	Mφ	contingent
Necessity	$◻ ϕ$	Lφ	Necessary condition
w:Universal quantifier	Πpφ	kwantyfikator ogólny	ANY: For all p, \phi\|Universal quantifier
Existential quantifier	$\exists p ϕ$	Σpφ	Exists

Note that the quantifiers ranged over propositional values in Łukasiewicz's work on many-valued logics.
