man. Hence the phrase "the man who" is equivalent to "all men who". (2) The Verb is "are." (3) The Predicate is "happy * * *." (4) Let Univ. be "men." (5) The Sign of Quantity is "all." (6) The Proposition now becomes "All | men who do not know what 'toothache' means | are | happy men." pg016 (8) "Some farmers always grumble at the weather, whatever it may be." (1) The Subject is "farmers." (2) The Verb is "grumble," for which we substitute the phrase "are * * * who grumble." (3) The Predicate is "* * * who always grumble &c." (4) Let Univ. be "persons."
