 省略推理法,省略三段論法

From: Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913)

 En·thy·meme n.  Logic An argument consisting of only two propositions, an antecedent and consequent deduced from it; a syllogism with one premise omitted; as, We are dependent; therefore we should be humble. Here the major proposition is suppressed. The complete syllogism would be, Dependent creatures should be humble; we are dependent creatures; therefore we should be humble.
