In an AII² categorical syllogism, the major term is distributed in both premises but not in the conclusion, the minor term is undistributed in both premises and the conclusion, and the middle term is distributed in the conclusion.
Given the major term "philosophers," the minor term "Africa," and the middle term "scholars," we can construct the following AII² syllogism:
Premise 1: All philosophers are scholars. Premise 2: No scholars are Africa. Conclusion: Therefore, no philosophers are Africa.
To represent this syllogism on a Venn diagram, we would draw two overlapping circles. One circle represents "philosophers" and the other represents "scholars." Since the conclusion states that no philosophers are Africa, we would leave the "Africa" region outside both circles. The diagram would look like this:
