- | **Theorem:** Let ${\cal L}$ be a finite language ${\cal L} = {\cal L}_1 \cup {\cal L}_2$ where ${\cal L}_1 \cap {\cal L}_2 = \emptyset$. Let $C$ be a conjunction in language ${\cal L}$, and for $i\in \{1,2\}$ let $C_i$ be those literals from $C$ whose symbols appear only in ${\cal L}_i$, as well as equality and disequality literals. Suppose further that if variables $x,y \in FV(C_1)\cap FV(C_2)$ then either $x=y$ appears in $C$ or $x \neq y$ appears in $C$ (thus they also appear in $C_1$ and $C_2$). Let $Ax_i$ be a set of sentences in language ${\cal L}_i$ for $i\in\{1,2\}$. Suppose there exists a model for $Ax_i \cup C_i$ for $i\in\{1,2\}$ and that these models have domains of same cardinality. Then there exists a model for $C \cup Ax_1 \cup Ax_2$. | + | **Theorem:** Let ${\cal L}$ be a finite language ${\cal L} = {\cal L}_1 \cup {\cal L}_2$ where ${\cal L}_1 \cap {\cal L}_2 = \emptyset$.
