Fallacies of Ambiguity

Fallacies of Ambiguity AND AMPHIBOLY.

IN OTHER WORDS... LIES. An emphasis suggests a meaning different from what is actually said???? WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN. DID ANYONE EVER TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY.

The fallacies in this section are all cases where a word or phrase is used unclearly. There are two ways in which this can occur.
i The word or phrase may be ambiguous, in which case it has more than one distinct meaning.
ii The word or phrase may be vague, in which case it has no distinct meaning.
The following are fallacies of ambiguity:
• Equivocation (The same term is used in two different ways)
• Amphiboly (The structure of a sentence allows two different interpretations)
• Accent (An emphasis suggests a meaning different from what is actually said)
