Universal sentence ($\forall \mathbf{x}\psi (\mathbf{x})$)

A universal sentence has the form $\forall \mathbf{x}\psi (\mathbf{x})$ with quantifier-free formula $\psi$, including an empty quantifier block. Its truth passes from a first-order structure to every substructure of a first-order structure: tuples from the smaller domain are also tuples of the larger domain, and quantifier-free truth agrees. Therefore a first-order theory of universal sentences has a first-order model class closed under substructures of a first-order structure.
