Syllogism (4:50): You are right! The algebraic calculations let us analogous conclusions: x - crows y - ravens, z - corvidae 1. No crows are ravens (x’y) 2. All ravens are corvidae (yz) - - - Calculation: ((x’y)*(yz))/Y = (x’yz)/Y = x’z = zx’ 3. No crows are corvidae (x’z) Good!
Hi, Lealyn. Thanks for writing! OK, so remember that each term (major, minor, and middle) occupies either the subject or predicate position. So, the middle term can appear in either place. Remember the four figures*: Figure 1: MP SM SP Figure 2: PM SM SP Figure 3: MP MS SP Figure 4: PM MS SP Now, you can't determine what, if any, term is distributed just by knowing the syllogism's figure. You need to know the quantity and quality of the claim. So, for example, if you have AEE - 4, your argument looks like this: All P are M No M are S No S are P In this case, the middle term is not distributed in the major premise, but it is distributed in the minor premise. I'm not sure what you mean when you ask about a distribution of the middle term in the conclusion. That can't happen, since the middle term drops out in the conclusion. Does all this make sense? -Mia *I can't draw the conclusion line in between the second and third sentences, but know that the four figures assume the first two lines are the premises and the third is the conclusion.
Hi, 지누 김. I apologize for the late reply! If you're still interested in some examples, please let me know, and tell me a bit more about what you seek. Thanks1 -Mia
@@preciousachebbs1115 Oh, no! Let's see if we can clarify. First, can you tell me if you're comfortable explaining the rules? Second, are you more comfortable with Venn diagrams or the rules? Third, how comfortable are you with the concept of validity? Don't worry, Precious! You can do this! -Mia

Good!
Mam this video is just getting much awesome a very simple and light explaination make my concepts very better hads off to you thanks🥰🥰

Thank you ma'am
great video!! thanks :)
Thank you, J R!
Thank you
Hi, Feruza. My pleasure!

Hello can I ask .. what if , the middle term is destributed to the premises as well as to the conclusion . ? What can we call to that..
Hi, Lealyn. Thanks for writing! OK, so remember that each term (major, minor, and middle) occupies either the subject or predicate position. So, the middle term can appear in either place. Remember the four figures*:
Figure 1:

Figure 2:
PM

Figure 3:
MP

Figure 4:

@@SymbolicLogicLPL thank you for the response ❤️
Hello Can you please help mee😭
Can you give 3 examples rules of categorical syllogism that can be applied in real life situations?
Hi, 지누 김. I apologize for the late reply! If you're still interested in some examples, please let me know, and tell me a bit more about what you seek. Thanks1

I don't really get the explanations 🤧
But there are nicely explained
