An argument may have either an implied premise or an implied conclusion?

i think an argument can have both. you have premise that leads to an implied conclusion.

Yes, to both .

I would concur with that statement. Often the premise of the argument once a conclusion has been reached by both parties is found to have significantly more common ground than initially believe by either of those involved in the argument.

It may be because I'm a little drunk but I have no idea what you just said :/

Actually, my best have both, with an implied insult of barnyard ancestry ( on the father's side) as well.

Of course. Implied premise just means that it is an assumption that is not stated but is necessary for you to draw a proper conclusion or for the argument to be true (if it is good reasoning). Implied conclusion just means that if you follow all the premises through the conclusion does not need to be stated- it is obvious from the premises.

You have to be very careful on these though. For example on EP I notice a LOT of people who think they are the 'creme of the creme' on AP actually ASSUME implied premises when there are none and so they come up with completely wacked out answers to questions, that seem reasonable to others. Unfortunately I also notice that there are a lot of followers on this site as well who look up to these people because they have some sort of charisma and state their answers very arrogantly and confidently- and in doing so they are modeling for others wrong thinking and passing it on without realizing it.
