This logical fallacy is called "ad hominem", which means "to the man" in latin. It means that, instead of debating about the specific question, you rather attack the person, in an attempt to discredit him and his words.

It is a logical fallacy because, when debating about anything, you should always and only talk about the actual point, instead of considering who said what.

If a serial killer claims that 2+2 equals 4, you can say something like "don't listen to him! He's a serial killer!". Yes, he may be one of the worst human being to have ever lived, but it doesn't change that this specific claim he made is true.

Answer:

Explanation:

Long is the only adjective, for "dirt road" is a noun in itself. If they were seperated with commas, Ex. "That was a happy, merry song!" then they would be coordinating adjectives.

Anne frank figurative Language

GuDViN [60]

The personification is: “deathly oppressive silence hangs over the house and clings to me as if it were going to drag me into the deepest regions of the underworld”
The extended metaphor is the line from “I wonder from room to room” to “a voice within me cries”, so the last 7 lines (sorry I didn’t feel like writing the quote out).
Anne is forced to stay in the house/attic every day to avoid being discovered. The attic itself is cramped and stuffy, especially with the 8 other people living there. She feels like a caged animal (a caged songbird in this case) because she is never allowed into the outside world.

How do details such as "stone or metal," "many pigeons," "towers," and "wild cats that roam the god-roads" help establish settin

Digiron [165]

Answer:

The sense that nature has taken over a once-urban area.

Explanation:

Mythical kingdom is possible (<em>towers & god-roads) </em>but a small mythical kingdom doesn´t make sense to me.

A preindustrial society is said to be in harmony with nature.

The feeling of an ancient village is not provoked by towers; that word, together with stone or metal could show a once-urban area that has been taken over by nature (wild cats that roam... many pigeons)

Some features of informal language include:
