Question 3

Identify two specific ways that you will incorporate pathos into your persuasive speech.Include what emotion you would like the audience to feel and what you will incorporate to get them to feel that emotion.

Accepted Answer

Incorporating pathos into a persuasive speech involves appealing to the audience's emotions in order to persuade them. One specific way to incorporate pathos into my persuasive speech is to use personal anecdotes or stories that evoke empathy and compassion from the audience. By sharing a personal experience or a relatable story, I aim to make the audience feel a sense of empathy and connection with the topic at hand.

Another way to incorporate pathos into my persuasive speech is to use vivid and descriptive language that evokes a specific emotion, such as sadness or hope. By painting a vivid picture with words, I can elicit a specific emotional response from the audience, such as sadness when discussing a problem or hope when presenting a potential solution.

Overall, the emotion I would like the audience to feel is empathy and compassion. By incorporating personal stories and using descriptive language, I aim to evoke these emotions and create a sense of connection and understanding with the audience. This will ultimately help to persuade them to see the importance of the topic and take action.
