I briefly rehearse a general characterization of logicism that includes projects within philosophical logic, linguistics, and artificial intelligence. After a digression in which I survey work in natural language semantics that I claim is very relevant to common sense logicism, I describe a logicist project that attempts to formalize semantic relations among words in natural languages.
