We already know: Rhetoric is the proper, and classic, form of persuasion.
We already know: • Rhetoric unfolds through appeals. • The Rhetorical Triangle refers to the 3 basic, essential appeals. • Every argument, ever, (for eva’ eva’? Yes, fo’ eva’ eva’), uses at least one of these appeals.

Still trying to understand: Syllogism • Logical argument assumedfrom 2 statements. • All humans are mortal. • Socrates is human. • Therefore, Socrates is mortal. • Because they form logic from something familiar, they are an effective. • A syllogism is not a cause and effect statement, but it sounds like one.
Don’t worry about this yet: Enthymeme • A logical statement with an impliedpremise • "Socrates is mortal because he's human.”
