This group's definition is slightly similar to our groups because it touches base on the same idea that the audience's point of view is changed by structural language, usually grammatically correct (to help drive in the point and to make the rhetor sound like he/she know what they are talking about).
This definition is different from my groups definition because it is shorter and less specific. We were also very conscious about using vocab words. The definitions are similar in that we both focused a bit on the audience and the effect rhetoric can have on an audience.
The definition that this group chose varies from the one chosen by the members of my group. This group decided that rhetoric is the audience's reaction to a situation, while my group focused primarily on the mindset required of the audience to be persuaded or compelled towards a certain action. Both groups, however, did focus on the mechanics of the speaker, yet we phrased it quite differently. They focused on structure, while we decided that it was a source of communication that the speaker was employing.
This definition differs from my group's because this one focuses more on the audience and how they perceive rhetoric while my group focused on how the speaker tries to influence.
This definition differs from the definition my group created because it focuses on the audience rather than the situation. In our definition, we describe the change that is inspired in the audience from the speaker's point of view. This definition, however, comes from the audience's point of view and shows how they view the situation. The definitions are still similar because they follow the same basic concepts and include the speaker, audience, and act of persuasion.
