Categorical Syllogisms

[@ncasalino]

Wow! I just spent an over hour reading a chapter that didn't make any sense but rather confused me. In less than 4 minutes of watching your video I understand exactly what I needed to know, and more! Thank you so much! You're step-by-step breakdown and patience in teaching is absolutely outstanding and pretty remarkable!!

[@kumarji1125]

May, i know which you refer?

[@winter8748]

the fact that this video is nearly 12 yrs old and is helping me in my exams is insane

[@MegRickman]

I like watching these before I go in for the test on Chapter 4. our prof likes to tackle chapter 5 before we do the test

[@gordonwilliams3680]

taking this now online. You sir are a blessing. I was soooo freakn lost and u broke it down in a few minutes. Thanks dude. GW Georgia Perimeter College

[@ThePoiuytrewq232]

Dude it only took me to see the stop download picture to understand the figure part of syllogism. I thank you sir, You taught me what I needed to know in about two seconds.

[@kahealanitkt]

I had to watch this a few times and reference my book, but I finally get it! Thank you so much! So much clearer, now!

[@AhmedHassan-gg2jr]

You deserve a raise 💯

Hi penny, don't feel bad, it can be tricky at first. Take a look at my other longer videos on categorical syllogisms. If you're still stuck send me an example problem and I can help walk you through it.

[@PhilosophicalTechne]

Hi KCAASE, I can understand why you are a bit confused. There are many forms of deductive argument(s) including the condition, or if-then formulation. It might help to distinguish deductive and inductive logic. Arguments that follow our of necessity are deductive while arguments that follow out of probability are inductive. Accordingly the necessity of a deductive argument concerns the form of the argument. There are many valid forms of deductive argumentation. I hope this helps.

Thank you so much for this! I wish you were my teacher. My teacher is a nice guy, but he moves too fast, and doesn't explain his thoughts very well.

[@ragnarokrock]

Thank you so much for this video. You really helped me and my friends understand this way better!

[@abecruse]

thank you for adding this on KZbin. You have helped me in my class

[@wudonglim]

[@jaan7436]

Thank you very much Love from India😊🙏

[@NguyenHung-nl4vb]

Hi everyone do you know how to do this one: Write the following syllogism in the standard categorical form and analyze its validity. “Whenever I'm in trouble, I pray. And since I'm always in trouble, there is not a day when I don't pray.” (Isaac Bashevis Singer) (Hint: you will need to change the wording of these three propositions, without changing their meaning, to put the argument into the form of a three-term syllogism.)

[@EmCaday]

thanks a lot :D those figures \ | | / 1234 actually helped and made things easier :o and they didn't teach us that hidden (or obvious for others) pattern in school DX they made me suffer memorizing those figure instead DX payback time this finals!!

[@joevandy3337]

[@clyonapires5990]

[@ayskrambol]

THANK YOU FOR MAKING EVERYTHING SO MUCH EASIER.

[@Goldenserenity]

My brain just can't grasp this stuff. As much as I try, it doesn't click

[@crystinamarie1]

Thank you handsome man.

[@happysimsokwe8904]

Thank you,for your lecture

[@KIMARWAY]

thanks for the lesson this topic was so annoying to me but i think i get it now

[@yogiteee9856]

Hello folks! In my (beloved) Critical thinking course, we call this type of determining whether a syllogism is valid or not 'poem'. The AAA-1 for example would be BARBARA. I do get, how you determine the validity of a syllogism with htis methid, but I don't get how I determine which poem it is. BARBARA? DARIO? FERII? Where does these letters/names stem from? Can anyone help me?

[@nwejeifeoma160]

Hi good morning. Please I'm having issues with identifying differences btw the Boolean interpretation of categorical knowledge and the Aristotelian interpretation of categorical knowledge

[@arvenjayabelo6855]

Thank you very much for this video :)

[@jadonangrongkabui2231]

Awsome u r better then our lecturer Plis may I know ur name sir

[@RBComp1]

Thanks for the help!

[@Matthewkindpend]

How deduction possible? I've been wondering that for a while now. I understand that in abstract reasoning we can deduce a conclusion based on two general premises, but can we deduce things about reality?

[@pauls7056]

This was really helpful, Mark. 12 Years old but still excellent. Thank you for posting

[@prathammallick8370]

Sir I can't take my mind those 19 valid figures

[@capnbyron]

thank you, helped alot!! :D

[@sumitshady]

Thanks a lot sir

[@kumarji1125]

Sir, if Statement repeats in Conclusion, then its follow or not? eg: Statment: Some A are B. Conclusion: Some A are B

[@julie198]

that would be circular reasoning.

[@hasankhalid3276]

can you tell me that this statement is correct that middle term is the one which is common in both the premises?

[@sharonsawana2394]

yes

[@hasankhalid3276]

lady skye Thanks ☺

[@eliot468]

thanks this helped but i cant help but feel like this subject is a load of hotair like it explains what i know already intuitively for no real reason. this is why i like math and science there is a real concrete reason for them i enjoy the arts also but this stuff is just pointless. why boil down arguments to lifeless diagrams

[@eliasclarke2048]

What do you mean by "concrete reason"?

[@julie198]

intuition is great for when one wants to make a quick decision with little information or time to reason, but reasoning is more precise; with reasoning, one can make more accurate predictions.

[@millza9512]

thanks dude

to understand, you need a true syllogism. from cicero- reality is that which exists evil exists therefore, evil is a reality now this guy should be easily grokked you are welcome
