- 22. Is when two negatives used in a sentence cancel each other out to make a positive.
- 24. It does not undergo such transposition but merely introduces negative particles before the subject and the predicate.
- 26. A proposition that expresses alternatives all of which cannot be true or false together but only one can be true and the other must be false, or at least one of which is true with the possibility that the rest of the alternatives may also be true.
- 27. A proposition that denies the simultaneous possibility of the alternatives.
- 30. A contraposition which consists the obversion of the outcome of the partial contraposition.

- 34. The resultant inference of inversion.
- 36. At times, the order of the antecedent and the consequent can be ________ provided that "if" still precedes that antecedent.
- 37. A conversion which consists the transposition of the subject and the predicate, and retaining the quality of the original proposition and the quality of the terms.
