Definition of Enthimeme

En"thy*meme (?), n. [Gr. &?;, fr. &?; to keep in mind, consider; &?; in + &?; mind, soul.] (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.
