I'm hearing that predicate logic replaces term logic, but teaching of predicated logic assumes knowledge of term logic. What are essential to know from term logic before studying propositional and predicate logic?

    You don't have to know anything about term logic. A lot of introductory courses in logic don't even teach it.

Unless you're seeking an understanding of the history and philosophy of logic, you really should not need to know anything about term logic to study propositional or predicate logic itself. Certainly the way propositional and predicate logic are standardly taught is self-contained. You may begin with some intuitive syllogisms, but ultimately you don't need to know anything deep about Aristotle's logic to learn modern predicate logic. There are plenty of high-quality free resources, e.g., http://people.ds.cam.ac.uk/tecb2/forallx.shtml

Wikimedia Commons: Hudson River Hudsonelva ( Hudson River ) mohikansk Muh-he-kun-ne-tuk ) er ei elv i USA. Ho renn hovudsakleg gjennom delstaten New York, men markerer også ein del av grensa mellom New York og New Jersey. Hudsonelva har namn etter Henry Hudson, ein engelskmann som utforska elva i 1609. Hudsonelva sett frå Bear Mountain Bridge. Kjelda til elva er Tear-of-the-Clouds-sjøen i Adirondackfjella. Ved Albany renn Mohawk-elva saman med henne, og deretter renn ho nesten rett sørover til ho munnar ut i Atlanterhavet mellom Manhattan i New York og New Jersey.
