PROOF
The act or mode of proving probatio (in the Dig. also of proving before a court of justice): demonstratio (a showing by strong proof; in Vitr. 9 praef. 4 also of mathematical proof): argumentatio (by argument). To bring proof of anything [Vid: To PROVE]: it is difficult of proof difficile est probatu.
Convincing argument argumentum: ratio. To bring or allege proofs argumenta or rationes afferre: to derive proofs from argumenta ex re ducere sumere eruere (☞ a proof of anything not argumentum pro aliqua re but argumentum quo aliquid esse demonstratur etc.): to bring many proofs for the existence of a God multis argumentis Deum esse docere: that is no proof nullum verum id argumentum est; to produce or allege many proofs for that opinion multa in eam partem probabiliter argumentari (Liv.). ☞ Argumentum is often left out when an adjective is used; e.g. “the strongest proof for this is “ etc. firmissimum hoc afferri videtur quod etc. (Cic.)
Sign token signum: indicium: specimen (a visible sign; ☞ not in the plur.): documentum sui (sign of one’s ability): rudimentum tirocinium (first sign of one’s proficiency in an art etc.). To give or furnish a proof rudimentum or tirocinium ponere; documentum sui dare (of one’s ability): specimen alicujus rei dare; significationem alicujus rei facere (e.g. probitatis): to serve as a proof signo indicio documento esse.
Attempt to ascertain the quality of a person or thing tentatio: tentamen: experimentum (an attempt in order to gain experience): periculum (an attempt attended with some risk). To make proof of a thing experimentum alicujus rei capere; periculum alicujus rei or in aliqua re facere; aliquid tentare experiri or periditari; fidem alicujus explorare (to put to the proof).

proof (subs.):
I. That which proves or makes certain:
1. dŏcŭmentum: most convincing p.s, maxima d., Sall. Cat. 9 to be a p. (of something), documento esse (foll. by rel. clause), Caes. B. C. 3, 10. (Documentum more freq. carries with it the sense of a lesson or instance from which one may learn.)
2. argūmentum (evidence, convincing token): that is a convincing p. that, id magno a. est (foll. by acc. and inf.), Cic. Ph. 2, 16, 40: so, it is sufficient p. that ..., satis est argumenti, id. Quint. 12, extr. Join: [certissima] argumenta atque indicia [sceleris], id. Cat. 3, 6, 13.
3. indĭcium (token, indication; esp. of guilt): p.s and traces of poison, ind. atque vestigia veneni, id. Clu. 10, 30: cf. supr. (2). Also in good sense, indicium benevolentiae, id. Fam. 7, 6.
4. signum: v.SIGN .
II. A course or mode of demonstration: perh. rătio demonstrandi s. probandi: v.TO PROVE . Sometimes, argumentum may serve (when there is one main point in the demonstration): so in pl., the points (leading heads) in a p., puncta argumentorum, Cic. de Or. 2, 41, 177: v. ARGUMENT .
III. Act of proving: in phr., difficult of proof; difficile probatu: Cic. Tusc. 5, init.: a statement difficult of p., *quod vix satis firmis argumentis probari possit: v.TO PROVE .
IV. Trial; expĕrīmentum; or expr. by experior, 4 (to make proof of): v.TRIAL ; TO TRY . Phr.: armour of p., *arma quae usu comprobata sunt (?).
V. Specimen sheet struck off by a printer: plăgŭla: Schneider pref. Vitr.: Orell.: to correct p.s, p. corrigere.

V. Specimen sheet struck off by a printer: plăgŭla: Schneider pref. Vitr.: Orell.: to correct p.s, p. corrigere.
proof (adj.): expr. by verb: p. against argument, *quem nulla argumenta movere possunt: p. against corruption, *qui nullo pretio labefactari potest, cf. Cic. Clu. 68, 194: intrepidity p. against all terrors, *animi praesentia quam nulli metus frangere neque debilitare possunt: v. TO PREVAIL ON ; SHAKE , OVERCOME , etc.
