Why is it if every model of $Sigma$ has an L'-expansion then $Sigma'$ is conservative over $Sigma$?

Consider $Sigma subseteq Sigma'$ and $L subseteq L'$. Then the theorem is:




If every model of $Sigma$ has an L'-expansion, then $Sigma'$ is conservative over $Sigma$.




Recall conservative means: $forall sigma$ that are L-sentences,



$$ Sigma ' vdash_{L'} sigma iff Sigma vdash_L sigma $$



Recall that an L'-expansion means we extend the language only and not the set of the structures so: $mathcal A = (A,L)$ and $ mathcal A' = (A,L')$ is true and $L subseteq L'$.



It's clear that $Leftarrow$ is easy, since to form a proof we just copt the same proof from $Sigma$ and ignore any additional assumptions in our axioms $Sigma'$. Also, $L'$ is irrelevant since $sigma $ is an L-sentence.



I have a hint that we should do this proof by completeness. So this is what I tried:



WTS, $forall sigma$ L-sentences:



$$ Sigma ' vdash_{L'} sigma Rightarrow Sigma vdash_L sigma $$



So assume



1) $Sigma ' vdash_{L'} sigma$ is true.



By completeness we have every model $mathcal A'$ of $Sigma'$ models $sigma$ i.e. $mathcal A' models sigma$.



Ok but consider some model $mathcal A models Sigma$. Then by assumption there is an $L'$-extension $mathcal A' models Sigma' implies mathcal A' models sigma$.



Here is where I get stuck and can't connect to back to $mathcal A$. Why would $mathcal A models sigma$?



To me it seems I've reduced the problem to showing something like:



$$ mathcal A' models sigma implies mathcal A models sigma $$



which I would assume is always trivially true if $mathcal A'$ only contains additional symbols and the sets didn't change and if $sigma$ is an L-sentence. Since, $sigma$ only contain original symbols and the interpretations of those symbols didn't change so $ mathcal A' models sigma implies mathcal A models sigma $ must hold.

    You mean if every model of $Sigma$ has an $L'$-expansion to a model of $Sigma'$, then $Sigma'$ is conservative over $Sigma.$

    And yes, your reasoning in the last paragraph is correct: Since the domains are the same, the reduct of $mathcal A'$ to $L$ is $mathcal A,$ so they agree on $L$-sentences. I can't tell if you have a question beyond that.
