Modus Ponens for the statement is, " Recession will be there in the economy next year." A syllogism is "there is a decline in economic activity hence every economy would be in recession next year".
<u>Explanation
</u>
- Modus Ponens is the rule of inference or rule of logic in which there are one premise and consequent results of the premise. There is a conditional statement which means that if an event 1 happens then event 2 would happen and if event 1 happens then event 2 would be inferred as the consequent result. For instance, If A connotes B and A is considered to be true then obviously by the rule of Modus Ponens B is also true.
- A syllogism is deductive reasoning where inference is drawn after assessing two other ideas or premises. For instance, all men can speak therefore Tom can also speak. The premises is all men can speak and Tom speaks and the conclusion is ll men speak and hence Tom can also speak.
- In the above sentence, the economy will be in recession next year the Modus Ponens is Recession will be there in every economy next year. There is one premise which is The economy will be in recession and the consequent premise is that recession will be there in the economy. Syllogism revolves around two premises and one conclusion, therefore, the economy is premise number one and every economy is premise number two Therefore the conclusion is as above.
Connotation will always mean figurative.
Denotative will always pertain to the dictionary meaning.
Your question asks for two words that have emotional meanings.
Here are a couple used in sentences so that you may understand more clearly:
"Don't be a chicken! Eat the tide pod! Come on!"
She looked at the man in joyful tears, "I finally have a home!"
While the detonative (dictionary; literal) meaning of chicken is “a type of domesticated fowl, a subspecies of the red junglefowl,” that is not what was implied by the speaker in the sentence above. The connotative (figurative, implied) meaning of “chicken” fell more along the lines of “scaredy-cat” or “punk.”
As for the second sentence, the woman could have used the word “house” but when you hear or think of the word “home” you think of warmth, family, and many sentimental memories – this is a classic example of connotation. The detonative meaning however of the word “home” is “a living space used as a permanent or semi-permanent residence for an individual, family, household or several families in a tribe.”
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Read the claim from Dan DeLuca's editorial "Dylan's Nobel Prize Settles Debate: Rock Lyrics Are Poetry."
Are rock lyrics poetry? The answer must be yes.
Which excerpt from the article provides evidence that supports this claim?
"The Swedish Academy's decision to honor Dylan set off an online debate."
"Salman Rushdie, a Nobel candidate himself, called Dylan ‘the brilliant inheritor of the bardic tradition.’"
"Dylan is of course enormously influential."
"The Nobel is given for a body of work."
Answer:
"Salman Rushdie, a Nobel candidate himself, called Dylan ‘the brilliant inheritor of the bardic tradition.’"
Explanation:
The excerpt selected above is the only one that supports the idea that the lyrics of rock music can and should be considered poetry, because it shows an influential individual who testifies that Dylan should be considered a great poet, capable of expressing feelings with music, as the bardic tradition states. With this, the author of the article offers strong support to his argument and allows the reader to remember the bardic tradition, which is able to end this discussion between music and poetry.
The full question is: In what different ways does the text distinguish prometheus's character from that of the other gods on mount olympus
Answer and Explanation:
The text to which the question refers is "Prometheus the friend of man."
In the text Prometheus is presented very differently from the other gods of Olympus. That's because he preferred to spend his time on earth working to make human life easier, unlike the Olympian gods, who preferred to do nothing, rest and receive offerings. Furthermore, the text shows that Prometheus wanted human beings to be independent and able to act without the help of the Olympian gods, who believed that human beings should be submissive and servants.
