Resumo:[EN] A simple, bivalent semantics is defined for Łukasiewicz’s 4-valued modal logic Łm4. It is shown that according to this semantics, the essential presupposition underlying Łm4 is the following: A is a theorem iff A is true conforming to both the reductionist (rt) and possibilist (pt) theses defined as follows: rt: the value (in a bivalent sense) of modal formulas is equivalent to the value of their respective argument (that is, 'A is necessary' is true (false) iff A is true (false), etc.); pt: everything is possible. This presupposition highlights and explains all oddities arising in Łm4.
