We need more videos from you. I'm a first year undergraduate and I'm going to appear for my first ever logic exam in 2 days. Your videos are such a saviour.
Thank you very much for your video because of it was easier for me to understand Categorical Syllogisms. You are good at explaining and you explain it clearly. Very helpful and knowledgeable video.
Hi Elii. Sorry so long in responding, but I've been really busy teaching this semester. No, they are not the same. A 'syllogism' is an argument form (two premises and a conclusion). A CP is a particular kind of statement. A Categorical Syllogism is a syllogism made up of CPs. Hope that helps.
Perhaps. It really depends on the context. If I said, in the context of the video, "major proposition" that was just a slip on my part. In terms of a CS, it would be appropriate to use the term major/minor premise. But, those premises ARE propositions. Does that help?
