For proper filters on positive integers, define A∈F+G when {x:A−x∈G}∈F. This is again a proper filter. The inner truth-set map preserves the whole set, the empty set, inclusions and finite intersections; applying the outer filter gives all filter axioms. The order of the two filter quantifiers is part of the definition and is not silently interchangeable.
