Blog 8A

There is a lot of importance when it comes to definition. Authors need definitions to help their desired audiences comprehend what they are really trying to say. An example of this that we discussed in class is say you are talking about girls and you say, "the definition of 'girls' in the dictionary is 'female'." This does not give the audience anything to go off of. Just the word female does not fully describe girls. This reason is why we don't really want to use the dictionary answer while writing. My article that I chose is about development hurting the environment. It talks about a town called Scottsdale Arizona and how what used to be beautiful western landscape is now shopping malls, golf courses, jewelry shops, and major league baseball training facilities. (The link of my article is found below.) The conversation that this fits into is environmental sustainability. The conversation is preserving environments.
