which), the one character is annulled and not the other, showing that they are
not the same.
Speaking generally, one ought to be on the look-out for any discrepancy
anywhere in any sort of predicate of each term, and in the things of which
they are predicated. For all that is predicated of the one should be predicated
also of the other, and of whatever the one is a predicate, the other should be a
predicate of it as well.
Moreover, as âsamenessâ is a term used in many senses, see whether things
that are the same in one way are the same also in a different way. For there is
either no necessity or even no possibility that things that are the same
specifically or generically should be numerically the same, and it is with the
question whether they are or are not the same in that sense that we are
concerned.
Moreover, see whether the one can exist without the other; for, if so, they
could not be the same.

Such is the number of the commonplace rules that relate to âsamenessâ. It is
clear from what has been said that all the destructive commonplaces relating
to sameness are useful also in questions of definition, as was said before:â for
if what is signified by the term and by the expression be not the same, clearly
the expression rendered could not be a definition. None of the constructive
commonplaces, on the other hand, helps in the matter of definition; for it is
not enough to show the sameness of content between the expression and the
term, in order to establish that the former is a definition, but a definition must
have also all the other characters already announced.

This then is the way, and these the arguments, whereby the attempt to
demolish a definition should always be made. If, on the other hand, we desire
to establish one, the first thing to observe is that few if any who engage in
discussion arrive at a definition by reasoning: they always assume something
