Churchill makes use of parallel construction partically in the last paragraph of our exerpt. He gradually builds his case and concludes in a way to raise people to his cause. He repeatedly begins his sentences with "We shall.." This makes it sound like he already has a recruitment of people on his side- whether or not he does we do not know. "<span>We shall not flag nor fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France and on the seas and oceans; we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air. We shall defend our island..." This is an extremely effective and commonly used rhetorical device.</span>

Churchill frequently uses parallel construction by repeating words that express the same or similar ideas:

We shall not flag nor fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France and on the seas and oceans; we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air. We shall defend our island whatever the cost may be; we shall fight on beaches, landing grounds, in fields, in streets and on the hills. We shall never surrender and…

The repetition of the phrase “We shall” conveys determination and a sense of purpose. It arouses the audience's emotions, making the speech captivating, inspiring, and memorable. It also draws the audience’s attention to Churchill’s central idea of never quitting. PLATO

Determine if the following sentence is cited correctly.
vagabundo [1.1K]
<span>It is cited correctly in case that we only have one work by Winston mentioned in our bibliography page. This way, we could turn to it and see the paper or the book and find it and on page 12 we would see the quote. If there were more papers by Winston used then you would also have to add the name of the paper or the book in the brackets.</span>
