Number 1, if you utilize and especially START a written composition with a word that is considered to be mean-spirited and/or NOT politically correct....... you will NOT be taken seriously.

Most people are not aware of what "weasel" words are and your definition is too wordy. A concrete understanding of what a weasel word really is is not clear through your explanation.
Obtain a thesaurus in order to use different words meaning the same thing...The words misleading and misled are too prevalent throughout and distract from the point that you are attempting to get across. In regards to your last entry...I'm quite baffled as to your point and the use of non-existent verbiage. Seeming like, relaxingly raises-do not enhance or assist your ad description nor does it make any sense. I'd give you a C-. Keep trying to expand your use of the English language! Many people don't and it is quite evident (especially on this site!) It is astonishing how many people are unable to intelligently construct an intelligent and thought provoking (as well as correctly spelled)composition through the knowledge of vocabulary,grammar and the use of both!

1.Retarded (and/or) irrational people always think that “new and improved” means better.

In sentence 4 u should remove "the" before "weasel words". I think then it will sound better .Also,in sentence 7, u could write "appearing as if she has just finished her workout from the gym" instead of "seeming............." Try it out yourself, doesn't it sound better? The rest are pretty much okay according to me.

#6 is the only sentence that is clear and concise...

#5 is incorrect in its construction

#4 is weak contruction, passive as opposed to active

#3 same as #4
#2 is passive and weak....too many commas - rearrange the entire sentence. Don't use "always"

#7 is convoluted and "relaxingly" isn't a word...."seeming like" is just wrong....

1# is offensive you should remove "always" and never use "retarded" in anything....

it rather is often ultimate. It purely needs a tiny little bit of tweaking. even however, I recommend which you utilize your notice processor's grammar and spell examine next time (assuming you utilize one). Egg cartons (merely type 'eggs'. we don't consume the cartons), frozen chickens(the 's' is mindless), pink meat patties, turkey sandwich ('sandwich' is mindless)meat, and so on(era mandatory) signify something ('issues' as a substitute of 'something' is larger or maybe 'animals') that when lived, yet at the instant are lifeless, (upload a era and start up a clean sentence. it rather is merely too long.)so we are in a position to pass dwelling house to savour a scrumptious omelet, burger, grilled chicken, turkey sandwich, and so on (overuse of et cetera.). stable success with your paper. :)
