EXAMPLES............, YEAH LETS SEE!!!!!!!

AD POPULUM APPEAL TO INDIRECT CONSEQUENCES
You should to study hard for you exams or else you will fail and wont be able to complete your degree within specified time. You will be in university until you are very old and your juniors will always laugh at you. You will end up being miserable and quitting your studies. Then you won't find a good job and will not accomplish your dreams.

ARGUMENUM A SILENTIO
I have tried learning to play Piano since I was young but until now i still cannot. I guess I will NEVER be successful in the music industry.

FALLACY OF AMBUGUITY
This one is from a friend's conversation , she said
 "I just watched baseball team practising for the game tommorow. Their pitch is really bad. "
what really does pitch mean the baseball field OR the act of throwing the ball to the batter to hit it.
This fallacy occurs  like when you don't know which of the two meanings is the speaker refering to as seen above
Oh notice that i have used two different stategies for defining the word pitch above
baseball Field - definition by synonym
The act of throwing the ball to the batter to hit it -  dictionary definition(www.thefreedictionary.com/pitch) definition 2

OVERGENERALITY
Look a the conversation below between Caroline, Moneyface and Elyn
Caroline:When are we going to start doing the group assignment?
Elyn: Later.
Moneyface: When is the due date?
Carolyn: Soon
Elyn: Okay okay lah! We will talk about it later, I have to leave.
Caroline & MoneyFace: Bye, oh you mind telling us where you going
Elyn: Somewhere

oh yeah, look at the highlighted words below, what do they exactly mean? Later, in two minutes, hours or days, how about soon, tomoro or next week, somewhere, could it be library, or cafe.
This are the kind of Words we use in our daily conversations, sometime okay but sometimes they sound mean but the important thing is to avoid them when you are writing or trying to convince people of something.

LOADED QUESTION
Why can't you be quiet when the lecture is speaking?
As a reader when you see the question you assume that the person who is being asked is always talking and making noise while the lecture is in progress, that why it is said to be loaded, it comes with a different attached meaning which makes the reader make doubtful conclusion.

Be careful when you ask such question because if its concerning me, I will slap you!!!!!!!!!! haha bye enjoy, c ya tomoro, wen i do my last post
