Question

Can you define contention and warrant and explain Toulmins model of argument

Answer 1

The definition of contention is a struggle, dispute or something that someone argues about. An example of contention is two people debating about abortion rights.

A warrant is a legal document that allows someone to do something, especially one that is signed by a judge and gives the police permission to arrest someone or search their house.

The Toulmin method is a style of argumentation that breaks arguments down into six component parts: claim, grounds, warrant, qualifier, rebuttal, and backing. ... It is, in other words, the main argument. The grounds of an argument are the evidence and facts that help support the claim.
