1. (logic) conclusion in a syllogism
  - 384 BCE – 322 BCE, Aristotle, Prior Analytics 30a.4–5:^[1]
    Ἐν μὲν οὖν τοῖς ἄλλοις τὸν αὐτὸν τρόπον δειχθήσεται διὰ τῆς ἀντιστροφῆς τὸ συμπέρασμα ἀναγκαῖον, ὥσπερ ἐπὶ τοῦ ὑπάρχειν·
    En mèn oûn toîs állois tòn autòn trópon deikhthḗsetai dià tês antistrophês tò sumpérasma anankaîon, hṓsper epì toû hupárkhein;
    1962 translation by Hugh Tredennick
    Thus in all the other cases the conclusion will be shown to be necessary in the same way as in an assertoric syllogism, by means of conversion;
  - 384 BCE – 322 BCE, Aristotle, Prior Analytics 42a.4–8:^[2]
    ἀλλὰ καὶ οὕτως πλείους οἱ συλλογισμοί· πλείω γὰρ τὰ συμπεράσματά ἐστιν, οἷον τό τε Α καὶ τὸ Β καὶ τὸ Γ. εἰ δ’ οὖν μὴ πλείους ἀλλ’ εἷς, οὕτω μὲν ἐνδέχεται γενέσθαι διὰ πλειόνων τὸ αὐτὸ συμπέρασμα, ὡς δὲ τὸ Γ διὰ τῶν ΑΒ ἀδύνατον.
    allà kaì hoútōs pleíous hoi sullogismoí; pleíō gàr tà sumperásmatá estin, hoîon tó te A kaì tò B kaì tò G. ei d’ oûn mḕ pleíous all’ heîs, hoútō mèn endékhetai genésthai dià pleiónōn tò autò sumpérasma, hōs dè tò G dià tôn AB adúnaton.
    1962 translation by Hugh Tredennick
    but here again there will be several syllogisms, since there are several conclusions, viz., A, B and C. If it be granted that these are not several syllogisms but only one, then the same conclusion can be reached by more than three terms in this way; but it cannot be reached as C is by means of A and B.
  - 384 BCE – 322 BCE, Aristotle, Prior Analytics 53a.17–19:^[3]
    ὅσα γὰρ ἢ ὑπὸ τὸ μέσον ἢ ὑπὸ τὸ συμπέρασμά ἐστιν, ἁπάντων ἔσται ὁ αὐτὸς συλλογισμός, ἐὰν τὰ μὲν ἐν τῷ μέσῳ τὰ δ’ ἐν τῷ συμπεράσματι τεθῇ·
    hósa gàr ḕ hupò tò méson ḕ hupò tò sumpérasmá estin, hapántōn éstai ho autòs sullogismós, eàn tà mèn en tôi mésōi tà d’ en tôi sumperásmati tethêi;
    1962 translation by Hugh Tredennick
    The same syllogism will hold good of all terms which are subordinate to the middle term or the conclusion, if these terms are placed respectively in the middle and in the conclusion.

  1. subject of the conclusion

      1962 translation by Hugh Tredennick
      The same syllogism will hold good of all terms which are subordinate to the middle term or the conclusion, if these terms are placed respectively in the middle and in the conclusion.
