Ethos, Pathos, and Logos | Rhetoric | The Nature of Writing

If you want to be a persuasive writer then it's good to know something about the three types of appeal: ethos, pathos, and logos.

The person on the video made it so very plain and so very clear. What he has created in my mind is when I read something I'll be able to look for the three rhetorical methods of persuasion. Thank you.

So far, the best video I got to watch to clarify my idea on ethos, pthos and logos. Keep up the good work!

Thank so you much! I am mastering my English, simultaneously reading some rhetorical stuff, and your ethos (your style of speaking) is certainly very pleasant for me. And is very clear and useful! Thank you!

Thank you so much for this video. My wife was having a hard time understanding these concepts but after watching your video she was able to complete her homework tonight. The video was clear and easy to understand, as well as the examples that you provided.

Great information in this video. As a University professor I certainly support the Natioanl State standards that stress these concepts in public education. That being said, the phonetic pronunciation is the current movement in the Southwest. Ethos with long o. Like Latin or Spanish.


Do you think speakers will adjust? Or continue with the Greek pronunciation?

[yolandapersinger]

the video can give information, also to argued the what you think ? I also looked for more information?

[romeo]

what would you call a method of persuasion where you try to fool others into thinking that you're considering their opinion or even asking them to make the decision while at the same time attempting to steer them into a specific direction?

Here for the ETC subject..
Perfectly explained.

[underpaiddev]

Would an effective persuasive argument consist of all 3, pathos, logos, and ethos, or will it all depend on the situation?

I'm having a hard time trying to discern when I would be using all three together or each individually.

[abdalameer]

Thank you very much for this great explanation . Could we find ethos in health bruchores. We could find logos pathos but where the writer could express his or her credibility? I dont think we have ethos in this kind of communication though it is supposed to be presuasive.

[chinhht]

thank you, there is alot of the whole new information and invention to me. How could i be trained to be as nature as it is?

[rudreshjoshi]

the colonel is experience person and when he is talking about communication problem then why isn't that logos instate of echos as he experience person. and there isn't any mention that he got this information from outside gossip or hummer

[emilylancaster]

[brandontaylor]

Vandals BATTLED the Goths. I doubt they would work together to puncture your tires, man

[magicbanana]

Using pathos as a rhetorical strategy is a form of emotional manipulation when used in communication intended to inform rather than entertain, change my mind
