  WFF - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Given a formal grammar, a WFF is any string that is generated by that grammar.
In formal logic, proofs are sequences of WFFs with certain properties, and the final WFF in the sequence is what is proven.
The board game is designed to teach the principles of symbolic logic to children (in Polish notation), and its name is a pun on whiffenpoof, a nonsense word used as a cheer at Yale University made popular in The Whiffenpoof Song.

WFF is providing a forum for improving fisheries, such as proposals for standards of professionalism for fishermen.

 Peter Suber, "Three Levels of Truth"
Among atomic wffs, satisfaction is defined differently depending on whether the arguments of the predicate are constants, variables, or functions, and in the last case, whether the arguments of the functions are constants, variables, or functions.
Wff A is logically valid when it is true for every I, not merely satisfiable in every I. A logically valid wff is true for every s in every I. Whether a wff A is logically valid is a function of the language independently of the deductive apparatus.
Wff A is k-valid iff it is true for every interpretation that has a domain of exactly k members.

 WFF - Indopedia, the Indological knowledgebase
For example, in propositional calculus the sequence of symbols ((\alpha\rightarrow\beta)\rightarrow(\neg\beta\rightarrow\neg\alpha)) is a WFF because it is grammatically correct (in fact, it is a tautology).
The sequence of symbols ((\alpha\rightarrow\beta)\rightarrow(\beta\beta))\alpha)) is not a WFF, because it does not conform to the grammar of propositional calculus.
In mathematics, a WFF is often the basis of a proof, which leads to one of the most notoriously esoteric puns ever used in the name of a product: "WFF 'n Proof: The Game of Modern Logic," by Layman Allen, a professor at the University of Michigan.
