  Illative case - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Illative (from Latin inferre "to bring in") is, in the Finnish language, Estonian language and the Hungarian language, the third of the locative cases with the basic meaning of "into (the inside of)".
The illative case, denoting direction of movement, is used rarely in the modern standard Lithuanian, although it's used in common spoken language, especially in its certain dialects.
The illative case was used extensively in older Lithuanian; the first Lithuanian grammar by Daniel Klein, that mentions both illative and į+accusative, calls the usage of the illative "more elegant".

 Illative Sense   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The perfection of this faculty Newman terms the illative sense, a use of the word "sense" similar to its use in the terms "good sense", "common sense", or "a sense of beauty".
The illative sense is the living authority which guides the mind in the discernment of the true limit of converging probabilities.
This same illative sense is the living authority which guides the mind in the reflex act of an assent to an assent which, in the case of a true proposition is the basis of certitude.

 Finnish Grammar - Illative   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The illative singular ending is -Vn, -hVn, or -seen in which the V indicates the final vowel in the essive stem.
Therefore, the illative singular is formed using the essive stem and the illative plural using the strong-grade plural stem.
The illative plural ending -hin is used, when the strong-grade plural stem ends in a diphthong or a long vowel.

 Notes for the study of Newman’s Essay in aid of a grammar of assent   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The importance of this illative sense stems from the fact that its scope is not as restricted as that of inference, so that by using it we can reach conclusions that are outside the scope of logical thought.
Illative sense can consider matters that cannot be clearly expressed or consciously analyzed: in this way, we might reach a conclusion without being able to articulate to ourselves the premises that we have used to reach a conclusion, while remaining convinced of the correctness of this conclusion.
The correctness of the conclusions obtained by the illative sense does not necessarily depend on a direct intervention of God who ratifies the conclusion, but merely on the power given to us by nature to obtain conclusions using informal methods.

The words "illative force" passed before my inner ear and I noticed that indeed a person could do something that was illogical - something that although it made no sense at all could be motivated by a much stronger force arrived at by "female logic" - too powerful for my weak interaction!
Illative force only has force in a conversation within the world of words.

 Touchstone Archives: The Cardinal & the Chemist
The third chapter compares Newman’s notion of the “illative sense” with Polanyi’s idea of “tacit knowledge,” the key terms each use to characterize the foundation and the process of rational thought.
For Newman, the illative sense meant the power by which the mind generates and evaluates inferences.
It seems to me, however, that the illative sense and tacit knowledge help to explain not inarticulate “faith-awareness” in contrast to articulate “theological doctrine,” but the reasoning process that moves from the former to the latter.

Abstract: Illative combinatory logic consists of the theory of combinators or lambda calculus extended by extra constants (and corresponding axioms and rules) intended to capture inference.
The paper considers systems of illative combinatory logic that are sound for first order propositional and predicate calculus.
The interpretation from ordinary logic into the illative systems can be done in two ways: following the propositions-as-types paradigm, in which derivations become combinators, or in a more...

In the succeeding chapters, the reader will be asked to exercise his or her illative sense on the various experiential materials, relevant to the theistic case, that the study of now one, now another, writer in the tradition highlights.
The point of the illative sense is not that it helps us to identify any one experiential content or area of reflection that might lead us to theistic belief, but that it provides an overall context in which a variety of experiential strata and argumentative strategies may be displayed.

 Noun Cases
Modern Livonian is recognized as having eight productive noun cases (nominative, genitive, dative, partitive, instrumental, illative, inessive, elative), in that all nouns are declinable in each of these eight cases.
The illative refers to movement to or into something or somewhere.
In my own experience of hearing spoken Livonian, I found that sometimes the internal locative cases (illative, inessive, elative) would be used instead of the external locatives, even for placenames and other situations that would seem to suggest the use of an external locative.

 Newman Reader - Grammar of Assent - Chapter 9
And reason never bids us be certain except on an absolute proof; and such a proof can never be furnished to us by the logic of words, for as certitude is of the mind, so is the act of inference which leads to it.
This is what I have to remark concerning the Illative Sense, and in explanation of its nature and claims; and on the whole, I have spoken of it in four respects,—as viewed in itself, in its subject-matter, in the process it uses, and in its function and scope.
Thus the Illative Sense, that is, the reasoning faculty, as exercised by gifted, or by educated or otherwise well-prepared minds, has its function in the beginning, middle, and end of all verbal discussion and inquiry, and in every step of the process.

Logicians use this kind of illative conjoining when they derive a proof by means of a formal argument from a number of assumptions.

The best way to describe the "Illative Sense" as one of these "inductive paths to true knowledge" is by giving the primary example that was used for it in the course.

That "feel" or "intuition" is a prime example of the "Illative Sense." It is in this sense that I say Rowling may have more of an "illative sense" for how to combine these elements in story form, rather than a "reasoned out" plan.

 Communities of Informed Judgment
Moving beyond both modern and postmodern accounts of rationality, Aquino constructs a proposal of informed judgment, blending Newman’s notion of the illative sense of reasoning with recent work in social and virtue epistemology.
The first part of the book focuses primarily on Newman’s treatment of the illative sense in the Grammar of Assent, with the University Sermons as a backdrop.
Aquino develops Newman’s insights into a social epistemology of informed judgment, transposing the problem of common measure into a problem of trusting the illative sense as a reliable belief-forming process in communities of informed judgment.
