Logic science and art of correct th Sytemized body of logical truths and principle governing correct thinking (as

s science) Is a technique and teaches its students how to make a good argument (as an art) Develop and perfect the intellect Formal logic Concerned with aspect of form with has to do with correctness of sequence of the following of material logic Concerned with the aspect of subject matter or content of truth Deductive logic That kind in which the premises flow logically into the conclusion It is from universal to the particular as me call says the move to the less universal by way of a middle term

Inductive logic Arrives at a conclusion with few certainly implies a sense of probability Argument The heart of logic Made up of propositions which are called promises and conclusions, and these, in turn are made up of terms 2 criteria to consider mental processes as thinking When the objective is the truth When the truth we already have is the nucleus of further knowledge

3 fundamental uses of language Informative Most common function attested to by textbooks and all other books on history, literature, philosophy, science Frederick Copiestons series on a History of Philosophy are excellent examples. In logic we use this function of work in propositions and arguments on here something is either affirmed or denied and this in turn, iseither true or false, correct or incorrect o Premises- antecedent comes before o Conclusion- consequent comes after o Proposition- product of judgment a sentence which affirm(asserts) or denies (negates) something Expressive Emotions and attitudes are expressed beautifully Example:

Poetry, common exclamations Expressive discourse is used either to express the speakers feelings or to evoke certain feelings on the part of the author Directive Most easily seen in commands and requests. It is what which frods or events and action to be done Example: a) Write me a line when you reach California b) Emy, please sing Nasaan Ka Irog? c) Dont use the car uneccesarily Newspaper maybe biased when conceived for propaganda or protection of business interest. A poems such as the chorus of the greek tragedy Antigone is expressive of a mood but is at the same time informative of the setting and the plot and directive of human values. A homily maybe illuminating as to dead persons life and character , expressive as to the speakers personal feelings and directive in its exhortation and the bereaved concerning the promise of everlasting life

Term may be a subject as a predicate of a proposition Significant terms- subject and predicate Non-significant terms- demonstrative pronouns, adjective and proper nouns Comprehensions of a term- sum total of all notes which constitute the meaning of concept. Extension of a term- sum total of the particulars to which the comprehension of a concept can be applied The greatest the comprehensionof a term, the lesser its extension and vice versa Kinds of extension 1. Absolute extension sum total of all actual/ possible individual subjects signified by the term 2. Functional extension sum total of all individual subjects present to the mind at the moment of discourse at the moment I think and speak and write a) Singular- stands for a single definite individuals or group. The signs of singularity are: Proper nouns Nouns modified by adj. in the superlative degree Demonstratives- this, that Collective nouns- not just the world but also expressions implying a single whole The article the Personal pronouns b) Particular- stands for an indefinite past of an absolute extension Indefinite pronouns and adj. some, several, many, few, most

 Use of numbers Articles a and an General propositions- propositions which are true most of the time but not all the time c) Universal- stands for every subject signified Universal expressions- all every, whatever, whoever, whichever, without exception, everything Universal ideas The articles the , a, an, if the idea is universal Kinds of terms Univocal- mean exactly the same thing in atleast 2 occurrence Equivocal- have different meaning in atleast 2 occurrence Analogous- have partly the same and partly different meanings in atleast 2 occurences o Analogues or analogates- inferiors of an analogous term o Primary analogues- term applies to them primarily and absolutely o Second analogues- terms applies to them secondarily and relatively a. Intrinsic analogy- the concept they signified are realized in all their analogues Extrinsic analogy- concepts may signify are realized only in their primary analogues most common are metaphorical expressions b. Analaogy of proportionality- similar analogous terms Analogy of attribution- depends on the relationship of the secondary to its primary analogue.

Definition- definere (latin) : to enclosed within limits Purpose- it explain in details the meaning of words and to indicate what the word or phrase signifies Hurley- as a group of words that assigns that a meaning to some words or group of words.

Inference- Arguments and reasoning. It is a mental operation wherein the mind moves from 2 or more statement or propositions or premises to a conclusion or truth which is implied by the premises. Types of inference 1. Mediate- mind moves or arrives at a conclusion drawn from 2 propositions 2. Immediate- minds arrive act a conclusion going through 1 proposition, the reasoning moves directly to 1 proposition to a new one

Square of opposition contrary

Oppositional Inference- refers to proposition which are opposites or oppose to each other Types: 1. Contradictory- related in such a way that if one of them is true its opposite must be false. 2. Contrary - A&E -Related in a manner that both cannot be true & both may be a false, if one of them is known as false, the other is undetermined. 3. Sub-contrary-both cannot be false but both may be true at the same time. If one of them is known as false, the other is undetermined. 4. Sub-Alternation- A&I, E&O Categorical Syllogism Major Premise 1. William is a friend. Friends are Gods gift. (Italicized sentence is the major premise) Therefore, William is Gods giftconclusion 2. Only good student can pass the exam Parts of the categorical syllogism (other parts) 2.1 Premises- antecedent proposition. The truth of pre-suppose and from which the conclusion is drawn. 2.2 Conclusion- consequent proposition. The truth by w/c implied by premises. Major Parts: (Basic) 1. Terms major has the greatest extension predicate term of the conclusion, occurs in one of the premises. minor subj. term of the conclusion. middle found in both premises, but not in conclusion. Ex. Therefore Roses are plants. (Italicized sentence is the major term) Flowers are plants.- middle term. The premise where the minor term is found.

Ex. Flowers are plants. But roses are plants. Therefore roses are plants. Major term is always the predicate of the conclusion. Minor term of the conclusion is the subject. Valid Moods First Figure Major premise is universal Minor premise is affirmatives/ Forms & Parts of Categorical Syllogism Syllogism- reason -has a discourse w/c certain things is posited (DECLARED:STATED) Something else that is posited necessary
