   proposition. See {Propound}.]
   1. The act of setting or placing before; the act of offering.
      ``Oblations for the altar of proposition.'' --Jer. Taylor.

   2. That which is proposed; that which is offered, as for
      consideration, acceptance, or adoption; a proposal; as,
      the enemy made propositions of peace; his proposition was
      not accepted.

      creed; as, the propositions of Wyclif and Huss.

            Some persons . . . change their propositions
            according as their temporal necessities or

   4. (Gram. & Logic) A complete sentence, or part of a sentence
      consisting of a subject and predicate united by a copula;
      a thought expressed or propounded in language; a from of
      speech in which a predicate is affirmed or denied of a

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

   {Leaves of proposition} (Jewish Antiq.), the showbread.
      --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.
