CIDE DICTIONARY

Apodosis, n. [L., fr. Gr. , fr. to give back; from, back again + to give.].

 The consequent clause or conclusion in a conditional sentence, expressing the result, and thus distinguished from the protasis or clause which expresses a condition. Thus, in the sentence, “Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him,” the former clause is the protasis, and the latter the apodosis.  [1913 Webster]
" Some grammarians extend the terms protasis and apodosis to the introductory clause and the concluding clause, even when the sentence is not conditional."  [1913 Webster]
