Rhetoric: The “art of using efficient word patterns.” Just as grammar is often misunderstood and under-appreciated, rhetoric also suffers from a bad reputation commonly associated with manipulative speech. Properly understood and used, rhetoric allows both the writer and the reader to have more fun. See also: Cliche, Oxymoron, and Pleonasm
