But I fancy I hear some one of my audience say, it is just in this circumstance that you and your brother abolitionists fail to

make a favorable impression on the public mind. Would you argue more, and denounce less, would you persuade more, and rebuke less, your cause would be much more likely to succeed. But, I submit, where all is plain there is nothing to be argued. What point in the anti-slavery creed would you have me argue? On what branch of the subject do the people of this country need light? Must I undertake to prove that the slave is a man? That point is conceded already. Nobody doubts it. The slaveholders themselves acknowledge it in the enactment of laws for their government. They acknowledge it when they punish disobedience on the part of the slave.
There are seventy-two crimes in the State of Virginia, which, if committed by a black man, (no matter how ignorant he be), subject him to the punishment of death; while only two of the same crimes will subject a white man to the like punishment. What is this but the acknowledgement that the slave is a moral, intellectual and responsible being? The manhood of the slave is conceded. It is admitted in the fact that Southern statute books are covered with enactments forbidding, under severe fines and penalties, the teaching of the slave to read or to write. When you can point to any such laws, in reference to the beasts of the field, then I may consent to argue the manhood of the slave. When the dogs in your streets, when the fowls of the air, when the cattle on your hills, when the fish of the sea, and the reptiles that crawl, shall be unable to distinguish the slave from a brute, then will I argue with you that the slave is a man! (“What to a Slave Is the Fourth of July” by Frederick Douglass.)

What is Douglass’s main argument in this passage?

A) The laws about slaves are unfair.

B) Slaves are human beings.

C) Slavery should be abolished.

D) He does not need to argue about whether slaves are human beings because everyone already agrees that they are.

Anuj is writing an orientation manual for new employees at a bank. Read this sentence from his manual:
podryga [215]

Anuj would use style guide "to check whether the content is accurate".

  • Your style guide may include grammar and online standards, copy patterns, voice and tone rules, content types with examples, a word list (and a blacklist), and brand essentials, depending on your organization.
  • A style guide, sometimes known as a style handbook, is a set of guidelines for document writing, formatting, and design. It is commonly referred to as a style sheet, but the term has several different connotations.
  • A style guide is a document that contains design rules for each frequently used design element, such as visual identity elements, icons, and interface components, as well as their states, headings, and so on.
  • A style guide's objective is to guarantee that numerous contributors work in a clear and cohesive manner that embodies the company style and maintains brand consistency with everything from design to text.

Thus this is the meaning of style guide.
