syllogize
To syllogize is to reason or argue in accordance with the principles of logic, especially those of syllogism. A syllogism is a form of reasoning in which a conclusion is drawn from two given or assumed propositions, each of which shares a term with the conclusion, and shares a common or middle term not present in the conclusion. So, to syllogize is to construct these logical arguments or deductions.
