Let and choose an infinite cardinal satisfying , for example . Take of cardinality . By assumption, every is definable.
For each parameter-free formula scheme , the definition is a formula with finitely many parameters from . There are at most such formulas. A definable type is completely determined by choosing one definition for each of the at most formula schemes, soThe same count applies to every model of cardinality , and therefore is -stable. Hence is a stable theory.
