Step-by-step explanation:

We use language to appeal to emotion in our everyday conversation. It's also beneficial when delivering a persuasive speech, making it a fan-favorite of politicians, public figures, advertisers, and corporations. Let's take a look at some loaded language examples to get a better sense.

Some common examples would be appeal to pity, appeal to anger, appeal to fear, and appeal to pride. Those are types of overt appeals to emotion. Examples: Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, look at this miserable man, in a wheelchair, unable to use his legs.

What fallacies are commonly used in arguments?

  • Drake's List of The Most Common Logical Fallacies.
  • Ad Hominem. ...
  • Affirming the Consequent. ...
  • Argument From Authority. ...
  • Argument From Ignorance or Non-Testable Hypothesis. ...
  • Band Wagon. ...
  • Begging the Question or Circular Argument. ...
  • Dogmatism.

An emotional advertising appeal depends more on feelings and perceptions than logic or reason to provoke action.

2 Social Appeal. ...

3 Humor Appeal. ...

4 Fear Appeal. ...

5 Sexual Appeal. ...

6 Romantic Appeal. ...

7 Endorsement Appeal. ...

The Purpose of an Emotional Appeal

  • An emotional appeal is directed to sway an audience member's emotions and uses the manipulation of the recipient's emotions rather than valid logic to win an argument.
