A rhetorical device is a specific approach or tool a writer uses to influence, persuade, or inform the reader/audience.
True
False

Answer 1

This is true. Every rhetorical device is directly correlated with a rhetorical appeal(ethos, pathos, or logos) and may often include multiple of these appeals. These appeals are a writer's way of manipulating the audience to believe their claims or to feel a certain way, whether their intent is to inform, persuade, or even to tell a story.
