A Rhetorical Analysis Of Grammatical Errors

354 Words2 Pages
After reading over the comments that were made on my rhetorical analysis, I realize that I need to correct many grammatical errors, establish the traditional meaning of “pro-life” and “pro-choice,” and clarify some miscellaneous sentences. I first corrected a glaring capitalization mistake that was in my title, and I also added quotations around the word “no” in my first paragraph. I made sure to insert the traditional definition of “the right to choose” in paragraph one after I established what Pozo Christie believed “the right to choose” meant. In paragraph two, I italicized the name of a news provider, and I also replaced the word “that” with “who” in two separate places. At the end of the second paragraph, I decided to reword a sentence

For the most part I agree with the writer idea. I like what the writer said how the justice was served by the court. Kinkl murdered 4 people and attempted 26 murder case, so he deserve 112 years to be in prison. Even though Kinkl has a mental disorder problem, he was a danger to the community and needed to be watched by the government for the public safety. The audience can clearly see what happened on the Kiniakl cause from the court report that is presented.

Those who were responsible for crafting essa ESSA sought to shift the focus from federal accountability and oversight to more local and state-based control; under President Obama’s waiver program, CCSSI and RTT initiatives, the direction of education policy was one on increased federal control over education. An oft-quoted Wall Street Journal editorial claimed that ESSA would represented, “the largest devolution of federal control to the states in a quarter-century.” Chairman of the House Education and the Workforce Committee John Kline further billed ESSA as a rejection of the “Washington-knows-best approach to education” and touted ESSA as “the kind of responsible education reforms the American people want and deserve.” While the rhetoric

Speeches are used to commemorate points of history, and inform the general public of the product of their history but what makes a speech so impacting on it’s audience? Rhetorical devices give speeches and works of literature a way that can convey feelings or ideas to a viewer. When addressing during times of war or chaos, people such as Ronald Reagan, Abraham Lincoln, and Winston Churchill used these terms to better connect with their audience. Without these tools of the english language, dialogue and literature would be all the more dull and unappealing. However, with these useful instruments, writers and speakers can better communicate through some of the many rhetorical devices.

Kathryn Stockett, the author of The Help uses imagery to help the reader better comprehend the meaning of the passage. As the reader reads along in the passage reading about little Miss Skeeter, “Munching on peanuts, sorting through the pieces spread out on the table, a storm [raging] outside (Stockett 77). Through this imagery that the author provides the reader is instantly transformed into the world of little Miss Skeeter as she is sitting down by Constantine on a dark stormy night doing a puzzle. The reader can hear the crunch of the peanuts and smell the rain coming from outside as they read the passage. Stockett also uses diction to contribute to the imagery of the passage.

So, Coop, you seem to take an exorbitant interest in my crush, I figure I'll consult you on how to proceed with her. As you already know, her response to my avowal was disappointingly neutral; no affirmation of rejection nor acceptance. However, being the pessimist I am, I chocked it up to a subtle declination. This is where your knowledge of this ends, but I guess I'll catch you up. I don't want things to be awkward between me and my crush (henceforth referred to as Pocc), in that if I pursue a relationship and she has no interest, she may leave the group of friends we have, or I may do the same due to how uncomfortable it will be (this is, of course, a product of my always assuming the worst will happen).

Ireland had been going through some rough times of famine when “A Modest Proposal” was written. They had been going through a hard time in the farming, for at least three years before “A Modest Proposal” was written. Jonathan Swift used sarcasm turned into satire. He was trying to point out that they weren’t actually that bad in the famine, not good off by any means, but not that bad. He was trying to prove a point in which they won’t go to the most desperate means to survive.

Hello Mychell, We basically had the same responses to the questions and I liked your phrasing to the responses. Another stereotype I had pointed was that a men thought of women always needing a place of comfort that suits them the best. However, this is false because as a woman during that time they were not allowed to speak up for themselves or really make their own decisions because of the lack of rights. She certainly emphasizes the fact that men always belittle women when it comes to intelligence and strength.

Past leaders such as Andrew Jackson, Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, and Marc Antony are evidence that society does not reward morality and good character in leadership. Society is drawn to leaders that have good rhetoric, propaganda, and charismatic personalities, and society supports them despite their immorality. Society is concerned about stability more than the morality of their leaders and will support immoral leaders in times of crisis to provide stability. In history there have been multiple leaders that have used rhetoric, propaganda and charismatic personalities to gain power, despite their morals.

1) Of the three primary units we have completed in this course, the most challenging unit for me was the argument (persuasion) unit. I was surprised at how much I struggled both in the pre-writing process and in the writing process. To begin with, because I love arguments, I had trouble choosing a topic. In the end, I decided to challenge myself with the policy that requires sex offender to be added to a public registry policy. Instead of going with my initial stance (opposition), I decided to flip the scrip and argue the opposite of what I believe (proposition).

Helping the enemy People only care about themselves! It is not their problem if six million people of a group are murdered, right? Elie Wiesel, a survivor of the holocaust, the systematic murder of over six million Jews, wrote a speech about the dangers of indifference. Indifference is not caring and according to Elie Wiesel, it is the opposite of love and worse than hate. In “The Perils of Indifference” by Elie Wiesel, he uses his experiences, logic and points made from rhetorical questions to persuade his audience about how one should act when they see injustice.

The United States is made up of some of the most diverse and interesting cultures in the world. Jamila Lyiscott proves this by showing her different dialects and how they are all equally important. Lyiscott believes that the way she speaks towards her parents, towards her friends, and towards her colleagues are all one in the same.  Throughout the entirety of her speech, Lyiscott changes up her vocal patterns and dialects so that the audience can understand first hand what each of these dialects are. When she talks about her father, Lyiscott uses her native tongue, when she talks to her fellow neighbors and close friends she switches it up to a more urbanized dialect, and when she is in school she masks the other two dialects with a professional sounding language.

Often known as the Father of American Literature to many educated individuals, Ralph Waldo Emerson in his oration “The American Scholar” brilliantly provides a sublime example of how Emerson earned his title through the appliance of diction, syntax, allusions, and many other rhetorical devices and strategies. Indicated towards his highly educated audience, the Phi Beta Kappa Society, Emerson introduces the idea that the common class and common concepts of everyday life are becoming the future of art and literature through purpose, credibility, and tone. As many great writers, Emerson does not simply tell about his idea, but instead uses rhetorical strategies to help show his central point, one such strategy being purpose. Being focused on informing his audience of the coming days, the use of purpose can be

For this rhetorical analysis essay I decided to reflect upon the somewhat recent documentary titled “The Social Dilemma”. From gen-zians to baby boomers, this film was dedicated to educating people on the impact of social media on today’s society as we have entered a tech-frenzy world. Just like many other people, I wanted to see what the craze was about when this film was produced back in 2020. From interviews with former tech company employees to societal examples, Jeff Orlowski used various rhetorical strategies to convey an important message within his world-famous film. Growing up during a time where social media was just developing and kids weren’t glued to their iPad’s, I have very clearly noticed the effects social media has had on,

In this article researchers are finding a way if multitasking is good or bad between the correlation of mobile phones. Published studies of multitasking show that most individuals undertaking several activities at the same time compromise performance on all tasks. Evidence that mobile phone use distracts from driving tasks is particularly strong both in young drivers and in the elderly. Inexperience in the former and slower reaction time in the latter contribute to poor performance during distractions. Text messaging is even worse as a distracting activity and doubles the risk of crashing above that of just talking on a cell phone.
