Logic / Unit 3   Logic 072 short lesson, about 20 seconds

O Statements

Captions available

The idea

O statements — Some S are not P — assert that at least one member of S is outside P.

In practice

"Some employees are not managers."

Where people slip

"Some are not" does not imply "some are." "Some unicorns are not blue" carries no unicorn commitment either way.
