Formal language...

Domain of discourse, universe of discourse, or universe is the entirety of objects that can be considered in a formal theory.

Individual constant is a symbol for a fixed object. Boolean values are the two individual constants: true and false. Tautology $\top$, contradiction $\bot$...

Variable is a symbol for an object that takes values from a domain of variation. Individual variable is a symbol for an arbitrary object in the universe of discourse. Every formal language contains one or several types of individual variables, each type with an infinite set of variables. Predicate variable (or second-order variable) is a variable whose values can be predicates.

Operator

Predicate (谓词) $P: \prod_{i=1}^n D_i \mapsto 2$ is a function whose values are booleans: zero-place predicates are propositions; one-place predicates are properties; multi-place predicates are relations.

Logical operation...

Definite description operator (or definite descriptor) $℩$ (rotated greek letter "ι" /aɪˈoʊtə/) ("the object such that")...

Quantifier: universal quantification $\forall$ (rotated letter "A"), existential quantification $\exists$ (rotated letter "E"); uniqueness quantification $\exists!$;

Connective: (boolean connective) negation (非) $\lnot$ ($\neg$), conjunction (合取, 与) $\land$ or $&$, disjuction (析取, 或) $\lor$ or $\parallel$; exclusive disjunction ** (异或) $\oplus$ or $\veebar$; (propositional connective) **material implication (实质蕴涵) $\rightarrow$ ($\to$) or $\implies$, material conditional (实质条件) $\leftarrow$, material equivalence (实质等价) $\leftrightarrow$ or $\iff$ or $\equiv$;

Definition $:=$ or $\Leftrightarrow$ ("is a notation for");

Derivation/Logical rules. Axioms of equality: reflexivity, $x = x$; substitution, $x = y \rightarrow (A(x) \rightarrow A(y))$, where $A(y)$ is $A(x)$ with certain free entries of $x$ replaced with $y$ which remain free. Axiom of the definite description operator: $\exists! x A(x) \rightarrow A(℩ x A(x))$.
