Logic / Unit 3   Logic 067 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Subject and Predicate Terms

Captions available

The idea

The subject term names the first class; the predicate term names the second.

In practice

"All senators are citizens" — subject: senators; predicate: citizens.

Where people slip

Terms are class nouns, not grammar-book subjects. "Are citizens" isn't the term — "citizens" is.
