Premise
From Free net encyclopedia
Premise (from the Latin praemisus, meaning "placed in front") can refer to:
- A premise (also "premiss" in British usage) is a statement presumed true within the context of a discourse, especially of a logical argument. Often premises are explicitly stated. The accuracy of the conclusion depends on the truth of the premises.
- Premises are land and buildings together considered as a place of business. This usage arose from property owners finding the word in their title deeds, where it originally correctly meant "the aforementioned; what this document is about".
- A trade name for the insecticide Imidacloprid.
