When you had to hear some damn bad words like BS, I just started to think it was somebody that close to you was getting through some parts of your life that have been tough in some sorts of situations that you are tirelessly had to endure. Some damn bad words that I had experienced in my life were always negative on social life but not in academic ways. I always hear them in person or when someone is talking to somebody about something bad situations that they had to endure. From my writing experience, I never used some BS to some sentences through all my essays because I think it was violated to some sorts of way to explain my ideas in the essay. Also, I did sometimes prevent making BS or any bad words into my writing because I don’t want to something very terrible when someone reading my essay unless I read it. On the other hand, I will be able to cut off some points on writing anyway. For any insertable reasons that people have to endure in life, I believe that I have my own ways that I always hear or to say some damn bad words while you or others have bad news, overcoming something very tough for me to handle, and even though you still have to avoid any damn bad words in writing because I’m trying to make a good impression to anybody that you going to write about.
I believe that there are many specific reasons that people like me sometimes have to said or hear some bad damn words. There are many perspectives that I believe I have to BS based from bad mood or doing
Many people have a habit of writing differently and it can be good or bad. In the essay “The Importance of Writing Badly,” Bruce Ballenger encourages students to write spontaneously without any rules or “error-free sentences.” He believes that there are no wrong way to express how a person feel. It may not be the correct way to write it but it still allows a person to write continuously. Ballenger allows students to write badly because he is more interested in encouraged thinking.
It is essential to understand that classes taken in grade school do not give students a full understanding of each subject. With the topic of writing, there will always be a new lesson to learn, an aspect to improve, or a differing way to explain. Author Craig Vetter states in Bonehead Writing, “This is your enemy: a perfectly empty sheet of paper. Nothing will ever happen here except what you make happen.” Each story, essay, or response comes from a writer’s experiences. With each attempt at a new piece comes an underlying story of emotions the writer is facing. Each person’s writing is unique and the ideas people have are related to their past experiences and what they believe to be familiar with when deciding which writing style to use. As a high school student, I have learned many things about writing that helped me become the improved writer I am today, but the most essential advice I have received is practice makes perfect. Although there is no actual perfect way of writing, I have discovered that each essay I write, my writing improves. It is easier to spot mistakes, find areas to improve, and ponder elevated word choice to use.
Words are very powerful, and sometimes the words we use offend people. Freedom of speech is highly valued but what happens when your freedom becomes hurtful or disrespectful to someone else? There are so many different kinds of people and different things that offend each person. In this day where we are more inclined to say whatever we want, we see more and more offense being taken to the words that get said. It's hard to understand why certain words can be insulting to someone when it may not seem that way to you. We have to ask ourselves, why do we care what other people say and should we censer everything that goes into the public just so people don't get offended?
The Importance of Writing Badly was written by Bruce Ballenger. His intended audience are students who are victims of strict English teachers as well as the strict English teachers, themselves. In his essay, Ballenger portrays that students are more focused on being grammatically correct than the message in their essays. This is because of teachers who grade strictly on grammar errors and punctuation. Ballenger says, “A colleague of mine, an Ivy League graduate, is among the self-appointed grammar police, complaining often about the dumb mistakes his students make in their papers. I don’t remember him ever talking about what his students are trying to say in those papers.” (Page 74). Bruce Ballenger has effectively argued and persuaded his intended audience with his use of ethos, pathos, and logos.
In the article, “The Careless Language of Sexual Violence”, by Roxane Gay, is about sexual violence and how it is usually presented in the media. Throughout the article it seems as if she is trying to inform us about how rape culture is increasing sexual violence. How we should carefully speak about rape. How we should take it seriously. How we should be concerned about the victim not the rapists.
I believe employers are missing qualified candidates because of improper grammar. Employers can miss a qualified candidate due to improper grammar on a resume or cover letter, and miss out on an amazing skill set that may be what just that person could bring to the table. So who should care? I believe students should because today's schools don't put emphasis on grammar. So when you graduate and you're a job seeker, employers will look over you because you were not taught the proper way to use grammar. I believe the issue is not just on the employers side but also on the educational system that brings improper grammar into the job market.
We must be aware of what we are saying and exercise self-control before blurting out whatever comes to our minds. Our words have the power to bring life or death to our own lives, the lives of others and our future. Some of our words can satisfy our souls, like food satisfies our stomachs. But we want lasting satisfaction, not a temporary fix. Like Proverbs 18:20 says, “the right words on a person’s lips brings [lasting] satisfaction to a person’s life. An important key to a successful life is to understand the power of words (White, 2004). Our words are externalized thoughts, even though they may have been said without thinking of the effect it may have on yourself or the people around you. Our words cannot be taken back once we have said them. The more conscious we are of our thoughts, the more conscious we are of our words and the power they unleash. Successful individuals understand that they need to adopt a positive vocabulary rather than a negative vocabulary, in order to see successful, positive results. Our words are powerful tools and should be released if the result is for positive change or
Upon rereading the last three essays i wrote i gained some new insight about my writing, the good and the bad. The best part of my writing would be my body paragraphs. I believe my body paragraphs are good because i spend way more time on them than the introduction and conclusion. Another reason i believe they are good is because i back my claims with facts while including commentary, which is what you're supposed to do making me believe my body paragraphs are good because i spend more time on them and follow the lines on how to make effective body paragraphs. Even though i found good things about my writing there are also things i don't find appealing. Some things I don't like in my essays are the introductions and conclusions. This is
I think that word shouldn’t be used at all , it's a offensive word and needs to be gone. It should never be used because that's not how we treat people with different skins , Even if you are with friends it should never be used. I hear the word come out of everyone's mouth , some people say it to make people mad. I feel like we shouldn’t use this word that we should not treat it like a gold ticket to say it whenever you want. I think the usage of this word is dumb and ridiculous and it needs to stop. They way people use this word is offensive , people of not of different color go around and when the see a person with a color they think it is a free right to say it whenever they want , and they think it's okay to say it when it really hurts
People use this word for a number of reasons. Some don’t fully understand the meaning of such a word. What it really means to one, to some it causes a great deal of pain. But to others, it’s just a word.
Many people say that expressing themselves with bad words makes them feel better, but then again it could be true however does it make it right? How many of you have walked beside a family and you hear the children talking to their parents in such a disrespectful matter as if they weren’t the authority figure as if respect never existed. Possibly the parents might find it okay for their children to speak to them in such way but in other people’s eyes it’s not. Nowadays not only do children but adults find it okay for them to speak in a unpleasant matter.
Okay, it took me long enough but I have been officially enlightened and have opened my mind and heart to what is going on, clearing up all fear and confusion...read carefully, so you can understand too, okay here goes:
The purpose of this memo is the summarize the main points of the article written by Josh Bernoff, “Bad Writing is Destroying Your Company’s Productivity”.
Proses strong persona as a teacher establishes ethos in paragraph 29. Prose also speaks as a reader which also involves ethos. Her writing about King Leer is rellevant to this persona (paras. 30 and 31).
Writing is not just as simple as putting words down on a document or a piece of paper, it is a process. Within this intricate process are steps that involve more than just writing, such as critical thinking, planning, and editing. Using these steps has not only helped me when planning an essay but also when composing one. Throughout this course, I have managed to improve many skills and gain a lot of strengths, but I still possess some weaknesses. Overall, I believe my strengths have definitely outgrown these weaknesses and have led to a better, more high-quality writing process which leads to improved essays.
