Premise-definition
The underlying rationale for an argument or proposal.

Premise: n. also prem·iss (prms)
1. A proposition upon which an argument is based or from which a conclusion
is drawn.
2. Logic
a. One of the propositions in a deductive argument.
b. Either the major or the minor proposition of a syllogism, from which the
conclusion is drawn.
3. premises Law The preliminary or explanatory statements or facts of a
document, as in a deed.

Here, I'll include it in a sentence to help you understand.

I've no need to show you up regarding your obvious lack of intelligence, you
do that very well without any help from me, the premise to my conclusion is
that you have attempted to ridicule someone's use of a word, while clearly
being unaware of its meaning yourself.

As luck would have it, I also found an example of premises  being used as a
plural of premise.

 Syllogism-Definition:
1. in logic, a type of deductive reasoning based on a major
and a minor premise, whose conclusion must be true if the two premises are
true.
