        consisting of a subject and predicate united by a copula;

     5. (Math.) A statement in terms of a truth to be

        --Wyclif (Luke vi. 4).
  
     Syn: Proposal; offer; statement; declaration.
  
     Usage: {Proposition}, {Proposal}. These words are both from
            the Latin verb proponere, to set forth, and as here
            compared they mark different forms or stages of a
            negotiation. A proposition is something presented for
            discussion or consideration; as, propositions of
            peace. A proposal is some definite thing offered by
            one party to be accepted or rejected by the other. If
            the proposition is favorably received, it is usually
            followed by proposals which complete the arrangement.
