Ethos is an appeal to ethics, and it is a means of convincing someone of the character or
credibility of the persuader.
Pathos is an appeal to emotion, and is a way of convincing an audience of an argument by
creating an emotional response.
Logos is an appeal to logic, and is a way of persuading an audience by reason.
In this method the teaching is done entirely in the target language. The
learner is not allowed to use his or her mother tongue. Grammar rules are
avoided and there is emphasis on good pronunciation. [More]
Grammar-translation
Audio-lingual
The theory behind this method is that learning a language means acquiring
habits. There is much practice of dialogues of every situations. New
language is first heard and extensively drilled before being seen in its written
form. [More]
Suggestopedia
The theory underlying this method is that a language can be acquired only
when the learner is receptive and has no mental blocks. By various methods
it is suggested to the student that the language is easy - and in this way the
mental blocks to learning are removed. [More]
This is so called because the aim of the teacher is to say as little as possible
in order that the learner can be in control of what he wants to say. No use is
made of the mother tongue. [More]
In this method attempts are made to build strong personal links between the
teacher and student so that there are no blocks to learning. There is much
talk in the mother tongue which is translated by the teacher for repetition by
the student. [More]

critical period the ability to acquire language is biologically linked to age. The hypothesis claims
that there is an ideal time window to acquire language in a linguistically rich environment, after which
further language acquisition becomes much more difficult and effortful.
The critical period hypothesis states that the first few years of life is the crucial time in which an
individual can acquire a first language if presented with adequate stimuli. If language input does not
occur until after this time, the individual will never achieve a full command of language—
especially grammatical systems.
natural order hypothesis is the idea that children learning their first language acquire
grammatical structures in a pre-determined, 'natural'order, and that some are acquired earlier
than others. This idea has been extended to account for second language acquisition in
Krashen's theory of language acquisition.
The Input hypothesis is Krashen's attempt to explain how the learner acquires
a second language – how second language acquisition takes place. The Input
hypothesis is only concerned with 'acquisition', not 'learning'. According to this
hypothesis, the learner improves and progresses along the 'natural order'
when he/she receives second language 'input' that is one step beyond his/her
current stage of linguistic competence. For example, if a learner is at a stage
'i', then acquisition takes place when he/she is exposed to 'Comprehensible
Input' that belongs to level 'i + 1'. Since not all of the learners can be at the
same level of linguistic competence at the same time, Krashen suggests
that natural communicative input is the key to designing a syllabus, ensuring
in this way that each learner will receive some 'i + 1' input that is appropriate
for his/her current stage of linguistic competence.
holonymic agency, where the participant role is occupied by a complete being. Although not articulated
explicitly in either paper, much of what Mrs Verloc does and most of what Lok does is, in experiential
terms, carried out through the intercession of their body parts. For instance, it is Mrs Verloc’s hand,
never ‘Mrs Verloc’, which acts in key Goal-directed processes in the passage like ‘Her right hand
skimmed lightly the end of the table’ and ‘a clenched hand [was] holding a carving knife’. By contrast,
Lok’s nose and ears seem to do most of the work for him: ‘His nose smelled this stuff’, ‘His ears
twitched’ and so on. Although these meronyms do different stylistic jobs in their respective narrative
contexts, this type of agency is a recurring feature in the transitivity profile of many types of prose
fiction.
What are "Holonyms and Meronyms"?-- HOLONYMS ---- [Holo- Whole; -Onym: Name] - Holonym is a word
that denotes a thing that is complete in itself and whose part, member or substance is represented by
another word. Holonym [singular] | Holonyms [plural] | Example: 'Bird' is a holonym of 'Feather'. Derived
terms related to 'Holonyms': Holonymous- Words that are Holonyms are said to be Holonymous. Holonymy-
The state of being a Holonym is called Holonymy. MERONYMS ---- [Mero- Part; -Onym: Name]- Meronym is
a word that denotes a constituent part, member or substance of something that is complete in itself.
Meronym [singular] | Meronyms [plural] | Example: 'Feather' is a meronym of 'Bird'. Derived terms related

"Text analysis" is a broad term covering various processes by which text and
natural language documents can be modified so that they can be organized
and described.
