Categorical Syllogism is a deductive argument consisting of three propositions/statements- two premises (a major and a minor) and the conclusion. There are three terms-the major term, the minor term, and the middle term--in the Subject and Predicate of these statements/propositions.
Major term--the subject of the major premise and predicate of the conclusion.
Minor term-the subject of the conclusion.
Middle term- appears as a subject or predicate in both premises but excluded from the conclusion.
