Inductive, Deductive, Abductive, practical, and enthymeme are multiple types of Argument. An enthymeme is an argument that doesn’t give you enough information between the thesis and the conclusion. Analogous argument sets up a direct comparison between two things in order to prove a certain thesis. Abductive explanation uses its conclusion to explain its thesis. Authors may use cause and effect strategy to strengthen a claim by proving that there is a direct link between one thing and another.
