SYLLOGISM,
s.
 न्यायः, अवयवी
m.
 (न्), अवयवघटितवाक्यं, अवयवयुक्त-
वाक्यं, अवयवोपेतवाक्यं, आनुपूर्व्वं. A syllogism has five mem-
bers or अवयवाः, according to the Nyāya system, viz.
1. The proposition or assertion to be proved, प्रतिज्ञा
2. the
reason given, हेतुः
3. the example or illustration, उदाहरणं
4. the application, उपनयः
5. the conclusion, निगमनं. Thus,
1. ‘The hill is fiery, ’ पर्व्वतो वह्निमान्. 2. ‘Because it smokes, ’
धूमवत्त्वात्. 3. ‘Whatever smokes is fiery, like a culinary
hearth, ’ यो यो धूमवान् स वह्निमान् यथा महानसः. 4. ‘This (hill)
has smoke which is always accompanied with fire, ’ वह्नि-
व्याप्यधूमवान् अयं. 5. ‘Therefore it is fiery, ’ तस्माद् वह्निमान्.
According to the Mīmānsā school, a syllogism has only
the last three members.
