Now for all of you wondering what thisbessay is about die to the incredibly amazingly ambiguous title. This essay is about how to write an argumentative essay from, the expert on the subject, none other than me.
That's actually one of the first things I would advise you against doing in an argumentative essay, you should probably aboid calling yourself an expert on the subject, I mean if you really did go to that prestigious college and got that prestigious doctorate in your early 30's then yeah you're an expert, but chances are you just spent 5 minutes (or less if you're one of the lower hanging fruits) browsing wikipedia; so no, you aren't an expert. Anyways moving onto the next topic. The next point you have to make is to make sure you don't use 'muh feelingz' subjective words, because you saying 'I feel, I believe' and what other subjective stuff you say won't tell them you are right, it will tell them that you're a stupid blogger who should stay in special snowflake tumblrland. Another important thing to have in an argumentative essay is sources. In fact, as an example, let me post the source I used, that I'm definitly not just shoehnorning in so that way I get a better grade on this blogpost. https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/685/05/ Now as you see, it was not from wikipedia or a blogger website. It was from a credible website that is specialized in the subject I am writing about. websites such as bogger pages, politically motovated webpages, and especially websites like Wikipedia. The other thing you can never do is put in google as a source; google is the engine used to find the website, not the website itself Now with so many things you have to avoid. What should you make sure to do? That's a good question that definitly wasn't asked by myself because I have little to no friends and I'm all alone on this blog page. But I digress, one o the biggest things you need to do is compress all of your information down into 1 sentance summing up the entire essay, argument, and points you make. That is called a thesis statement and it usually is placed at the end of the 1st paragraph. And that is the best information I can give you on this subject. The rest you must find on your own little tadpole. Take your destiny into your own hands.
