Answer 1

The statements "I wish you would be friendlier'',"You are such a slob" and "You need to have a more positive attitude" are examples of complaint.

Explanation:

The given sentences are all classic examples of complaints. A complaint is an expression that shows discontent, dissatisfaction, irritation and a grievance against someone. The person who complains finds something disturbing him or her and vents out this annoyance through the complaints.

In the above set of sentences, the speaker finds someone rude and complains of his or her behavior and wishes that person to be a bit more friendly. In the second statement, the speaker complains about another person being a slob or sluggish.

In the last sentence, the speaker complains about the person’s attitude and directs him or her to have a positive attitude. Thus these are all complains.
