Blogg Assiment 2

Broth means thin soup.
This is interesting since broth sounded like a huge variety or extensiveness.


Itemize means list.
This other word is also interesting since itemize sounds to me like to use items or the using of items never would of guessed it meant list.


Forgery means counterfeit.
This word sort of sounded like something illegal since forgery sounds like ''forcar una cerradura'' which in English means force a lock or key hole to get in a house or some where locked.

Responce to Ad

In Mitt Romney's presidential candidate ad he uses heroism when the ad says he rescued the Olympics and turned around a democratic state.The ad involves patriotism when he addresses that he believes in the people of America to return the great strength to this land. Romney uses the understanding of the people to persuade his listeners by singling out some of the most critical problems average people deal with today.

In his ad he further uses camera angels to focus on his facial expressions as to not let viewers get distracted from his over appealing dialogue. Also when he gives his speech the American flag is shown behind him as to show that he is representing America and all Americans. Even the people applauding are shown as to represent that people agree with him. Further more the background music sounds like a music of triumph or the music that is played at the Olympics when someone wins.

A symbol in the ad are the magazines. They represent that Mitt Romney is not any average candidate. It shows he is famous for work out of the presidential candidate and people who see him in the magazine will think of him as some one important to society. For example celebrities are looked up to for there appearance in magazines and television so if Romney is on the magazine people will look up to him.
