Yes there are.
“I’m a thief, I like the challenge of stealing something valuable. We all know, the greatest challenge is the theft of something invaluable. For many years I searched for my next target, but I failed to find that one right thing which would satisfy my appetite. I don’t expect you to understand this need; but nevertheless, I will attempt to explain it. I consider myself to be the queen of theft. I am more cunning and bold than others. I have a reputation to uphold; and I intend to do just that.”

- I am only doing the first paragraph right now. Mainly just to show you what you did wrong so you can work on the rest.
- You have to remember that your first choice cannot always be a semicolon. Using a comma will happen more often than a semicolon.
- The way I do it is I read the sentence out loud and if it doesn’t sound smooth as if I would say it like that in a normal conversation, then it needs adjustments.
- A semicolon will only be used if the sentence it’s being used on is a full and proper sentence. That’s why it has a period and a comma. ( ; )

•Incorrect Example: “We all know; the greatest challenge is the theft of something invaluable.”
* “We all know” is not a full sentence, so the semicolon should not come after it at all.

•Correct Example: “I have a reputation to uphold; and I intend to do just that.”

*”I have a reputation to uphold” is a full sentence so it’s allowed here!

-Good job!

Use this link to read “The Gettysburg Address” and share with me at least one example of each rhetorical device we learned today
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Logos: ..."we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain."

Here Lincoln appeals to his listener's sense of logic: it would not make sense that so many people should have died for no reason. Therefore, it is important that the fight continue.

Pathos: "The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract."

Here Lincoln appeals to his listeners' emotions (hearts), by telling them that the field was consecrated by the blood of the soldiers who fought there.

Ethos: "Fourscore and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal."

Here Lincoln establishes his credibility by demonstrating his great knowledge of American history and the founding documents of this country.
