ergo

It follows that

Ergo means therefore or consequently—a logical connector signaling that what follows is a conclusion drawn from what precedes.

The word comes from Latin and retains a formal or slightly pretentious flavor: I think, ergo I am.

It often appears in mock-logical arguments or humorous contexts: It's Friday, ergo we drink.
