Is this sentence a nonprjudicial or prejudicial? SUVs are apartment homes on wheels. Is this sentence nonprejudical or prejudicial? Said by a student who is new to honors classes and struggling with them: I would have aced the test if I wern`t in a class full of brainiacs. They studied to much and ruined the curve.

why are you asking for help. Read the assignment and you should be able to come to your own conclusions instead of taking the easy way out. What are you learning if you have to ask for answers? Is this an online course?

The only thing I can say is that I'm in your same shoes!! I hate this class and I am looking for some help with the same assignment right now. Good luck!!

I think one can distinguish between prejudicial and nonprejudicial rhetorical devices by judging if a statement uses the many types of devices to influence ones attitude. Stereotypes, euphemisms, and dysphemism are just a few types of devices used to invoke a feeling or thought to change ones mind or attitude about an issue.

Rhetorical definition: Frank can be so awkward, he is like a fish out of water.
Rhetorical explanation: I would have a better job, if there weren't so many illegal aliens.

“Some Christian—and other—groups are protesting against the placing,

on federal property near the White House, of a set of plastic figurines representing
a devout Jewish family in ancient Judaea. The protestors would
of course deny that they are driven by any anti-Semitic motivation. Still,
we wonder: Would they raise the same objections (of unconstitutionality,
etc.) if the scene depicted a modern, secularized Gentile family?”
