persausive techniques and there effects Flashcards
rhetorical question
rhetorical questions have been used by the author to imply to the reader that there is an obvious answer to the question, therefore the reader should simply agree. Also rhetorical questions directly address the reader, engaging them further in the topic.
Inclusive language
inclusive language has been used by the author to make the reader feel personally involved and attached to the text; it also fulfils the reader’s desire to belong to a group or plays on the reader’s FOMO (fear of missing out).
repetition
has been used by the author to provide more emphasis for a key word or main point; also it helps the message linger/stay in the reader’s mind for a long time
