Ok so in basic terms, ad hominem is attacking your opponent and not there position. An example would be:
You cannot believe my opponent; his hair is untidy and his visage is beyond unprofessional.
By saying that the opponent is "untidy and unprofessional", you are attacking his character. Rather than arguing against his position, the attack of the opponent's character is Ad hominem.
I hope this helps :-)

Is the sentence I sat on my bed feeling unmoored a objective or subjective or both
Mila [183]

Hello! :)

Answer:

It seems to be a subjective sentence.

Explanation:

Let's understand the difference between the two . . .

<u>subjective</u>: This type of sentence refers to personal opinions with no factual evidence involved.

<u>objective</u>: This type of sentence contains information with evidence to support what is being said, and sticks to the facts.

There's usually no feelings or mood involved in an objective sentence and "unmoored" is an adjective desbribing the feeling of sitting on the bed.

What is the connotative meaning of the words in bold?
Umnica [9.8K]

Hi. You did not submit the text this question refers to. This makes it impossible for your question to be answered. However, when searching for your question on the internet, I was able to find another question just like yours, which had the text that is attached below. Also, show the words in bold, which in the case of the text, are underlined. In that case, I hope the answer below can help you.

Answer:

Annoyance: the author is pointing out a likely reason for the "guests" to come

Explanation:

A connotative meaning refers to a subjunctive meaning, not literal and different from the real meaning of the word, but associated with the context to which it refers, within the text. In the case of the expression "casual acquaintances" presented in the text shown below, we can interpret that this expression shows a connotative meaning of annoyance, where the author shows the presence of uninvited people who did not have the requested presence.

Answer:

The excerpt from the Haida creation myth that is the best evidence that they valued social relationships is:

C. Still, Raven could tell the men were not truly happy. They did not have companions to join them in caring the earth.

Explanation:

Creation myths are stories found in different cultures which explain the existence of our world and its phenomena through the interaction of characters and symbols. In the creation myth of the Haida people - indigenous people who live in North America - one of the characters is the Raven. At a certain point, the raven realizes that men are sad for not having companions. This details reveals something about the Haida culture: they value social relationships.
