English

Savatey [412]2 years ago

The language system is semantics. "Coke" v.s "Sprite." are two different words, so we are focusing on a word. When Anna paused, she was confused because to Melinda, A Coke means a Sprite in her vocabulary. She wanted to confirm the same meaning. Semantics involves a changing meaning depending on the person. She is visiting from Alabama, so the meanings may have chosen just like dialects. Thus, it cannot be phonology/morphology, syntax, or pragmatics.

Does Samuel Sewall appeal more to logic or to emotion in "The Selling of Joseph: A Memorial"? Back up your response with evidenc
schepotkina [342]

It has logic and emotion, but mostly logic.  His logic is very clear that if you follow the bible you shouldn't condemned slavery and killings of hundred of people. When practicing the bible and being christians one has to act like christ and follow the teachings of him and the bible.  They cannot prove Joseph's enslavement as wrong, but still enslave people who were like Joseph. In it Sewall not only condemns the practice of human trafficking, but goes on to challenge many common slave owners held  the practice of enslavement and yet still be followers of God. He uses Joseph as example to bring light to what they are doing wrong. Sewall also cites several Biblical passages which Sewall uses to make a of the practice of man stealing. Using logic is very clear in his writing about people just choosing to ignore themselves on being a hypocrite and make them question their own strong held belief.

zysi [14]
It's such a typical scene, mass delirium, however we more often than not observe it in a considerably less uncommon shape. In a nursery, when one infant begins crying, they all begin crying. At the point when a couple of children on a play area begin singling out somebody, the rest float around, cheer, and possibly get a kick or two. At the point when there is a radical deal on wedding outfits, groups of individuals go insane.
