What are the three types of fallacies that structural linguists find in traditional grammar?normative, semantic, logical
transform, morphology, phoneme
syntactic, structural, generative

Answers

The correct answer is A. Normative, semantic, logical

Explanation:

The word linguistics refer to the study of language and the elements that are part of it, because of this, there are different approaches including the traditional and the structural approaches that aim at understanding language from different perspectives. In the case of the traditional approach, it was believed language was composed of fixed structures that could be applied in all cases. On the other hand, the structural approach understood language as a structure that can be described by understanding the units that composed it which are not fixed but varies according to multiple linguistic elements.

Due to this, structural linguistics criticized the traditional linguistics in terms of grammar as they believed there were multiple fallacies or incorrect ideas in considering grammar from the perspective traditional linguistics did. This included the normative fallacy as in traditional grammar there are standards for using the language, but according to structural linguistics language change and there are no static norms for it; the semantic fallacy as in traditional grammar the study of language is guided the meaning of words, but for structural linguistics this was not precise or objective and  the logical fallacy as traditional grammar supported the idea of universal laws that could be applied to all languages but structural linguistics believed this was not true.

Thus, the three types of fallacies that structural linguistics find in traditional grammar were the normative, the semantic and the logical considering the beliefs of structural linguistics about these three concepts were opposite to the beliefs of linguistics of traditional grammar and due to this, they called these fallacies or false ideas.
I would say that the three types of fallacies that structural linguists find in traditional grammar are normative, semantic, and logical. 

Choose the word that best fills in blank ?he went into a long __ about the outcome of the election after it was mentioned on the news

a assert
b quibble
c rant
d fastidious

Answers

C. rant
He went into a long rant about the outcome of the election after it was mentioned on the news.

assert and fastidious are not nouns, which is what the sentence is asking for "a thing", so they are not the correct answers. As well they only mention one person in the sentence and quibble is an argument, which needs more than one person. Therefore it is not likely to be the correct answer. A rant is a long tirade by one person, it fits the best within the sentence.
