Waleed Aly uses several features of language to convince the viewers to his perception through appealing to emotions and logic. He includes inclusive and emotive language to ensure that the issue plays on the reader’s feelings, addresses everyone and makes it appear more significant than it actually is. For example, “I’m sickened by the violence” or “I’m crushed for the families that have been left behind.” He incorporates a hyperbole which exaggerates and overemphasizes the crux of the statement to produce a grander, more noticeable effect. Through the phrase “We’re all feeling a million raging emotions right now” Aly creates a larger-than-life effect and overly tensions his point. Another technique is a call to action, “We all need to come
This article does not contain a comical sense to it but has a dark, serious tone that is used to show the disturbing realities of this world that these people live in. The article using multiple rhetorical questions that are meant for the reader to think about and place themselves in the described world. This allows them to place themselves in this world and visualize the harsh reality and fear that this world truly holds. The audience is again those people who are not part of this world but are supposed to be in the position of “on the outside looking in” as this description tries to set them in this world within their imagination. This news article breaks its genre conventions as it is not the usual detailed-packed account of a situation you see on the news that simply describes the news it is talking about. Instead, this uses questions to stimulate the reader to envision their own idea of what is happening, while using some supporting details to sway the reader the way I want them to think. Differently, this does keep the convention of having a serious, and dark tone that most of the new news stories and articles
George Bush intentionally generates this emotion at the end to leave viewers feeling slightly better on the situation at hand. In his conclusion, the then president merges viewers in saying, “This is a day when all Americans from every walk of life unite in our resolve for justice and peace. America has stood down enemies before, and we will do so this time. None of us will ever forget this day, yet we go forward to defend freedom and all that is good and just in our world.” His conclusions strike different chords in raising hope amongst viewers. He ultimately depicts a unified country and reminds viewers that something similar to this tragedy has happened before, proving that our country has overcome similar challenges. In addition, his reminds viewers of “all that is good and just in our world” evoking more hopeful thinking from Americans. At the end of his address, Bush uses many positive images that cancel out the tragic ones from his introduction and thusly ends his address portray great amounts of hope, comforting
Throughout the speech, the Former President George W Bush strives to empower Americans by instructing them to remain resolute, but to “go back to [their] lives and routines”. He uses the personal pronoun we and the common pronoun us repeatedly to indicate that the people of the United States, who either saw the event on television or experienced this event firsthand, were and still are involved in this national tragedy. He implements this emotional appeal into his speech to involve all Americans--people living in the United States of America, regardless of their ethnicity, race, or culture, and to acknowledge that the American people have endured this together, and that they will continue to advance after this event with stronger resolve, stronger than ever. In addition, he implements personification to motivate and empower the American people. “Our nation, this generation, will lift a dark threat of violence from our people and our future” (Bush, 2001). “This generation”, again a synonym for the American people, with its unwavering resolve, will fight for its freedom persistently. He intimates that the future of America and of democratic freedom is in the hands of the American people: that the American people have the power to control their fate. The next sentence leads into America’s “philanthropically” democratic nature: “We will rally the world to this cause, by our efforts and by our courage” (Bush, 2001). This statement has been followed up by action only a few years later, when the United States intervened in the Iraqi War, Libyan Revolution, and even more civil wars to ensure the freedom of citizens from dictatorships, which in Islāmic nations, were militant groups, like the Hamas and Taliban. Lastly, the president utilized anaphora, specifically a tripartite structure, by affirming that the American people “will not tire”, “will not falter”, and “will not fail”. He implies that the American people will relentlessly fight for the worldwide establishment of peace and democratic institutions, a promise which America has kept even in the face of its own national crisis.
He uses personal appeal, or the pathos method. One of the very first examples he uses is the personal statement about his good friend Gabby Giffords. She was a congresswoman who was shot in a mass shooting in Arizona. He states, “I was there with Gabby when she was still in the hospital, and we didn’t necessarily at that point think she was going to survive.” When he makes this statement, he is really trying to show how guns can affect anyone in the world at anytime. He is trying to make the point that he has dealt with this matter on a personal level to try and reach out to a certain area of his audience, which are people that have been affected personally by firearms. He tries to touch home to people to get them to listen. He brings up the event of Sandy Hook Elementary by stating “And that’s what we tried to change three years ago, after 26 Americans—Including 20 children, were

When people read, they are taken to another person’s world and forced to see things through a new lens. In The Reluctant Fundamentalist, Hamid attempted to use the feelings already inside the reader to create the world. In “Enduring Love of the Second Person,” Hamid writes “to try and show, after the terror attacks of 9/11, how feelings already present inside a reader – fear, anger, suspicion, loyalty- could color a narrative so that the reader, as much as or even more than the writer, is deciding what is really going on.” He wants to use the second person to pull the feeling already in ourselves into the material that is used to make the set for The Reluctant Fundamentalist.
Language is a vital key to humans all throughout the world and in constant change, never still. One cannot argue language does not influence daily decisions while it is also a powerful tool, capable of doing anything. In retrospect, whoever beholds the correct authority over language ultimately possesses power over the people. Multiple different tactics of language are put to use in order to achieve certain objectives, whether the manipulation comes from social media, propaganda, or even fear, it hides behind the deception. Within George Orwell’s book,1984, and Saul Alinsky's opinionated statement,“ he who controls the language controls the masses” demonstrates prodigious illustrations of how language morphs to one's advantage.
Many people do not recognize the strategies writers and speakers use to influence their audiences’ opinions. They believe that their opinions were constructed based solely on facts. Although establishing one’s own opinions based on facts is ideal, this is usually not the case. By means of the Aunt’s lessons in The Handmaid’s Tale, Margaret Atwood argues that individuals use verbal techniques, such as word choice, tone, and repetition, to suppress others’ conflicting viewpoints and to promote their own. This is significant because it reveals how people can be manipulated into believing false or misleading information.
