A naysayer in writing. A naysayer is a counter claim or any criticism that goes against your
argument. If you incorporate the criticism or objections to your clam your writing becomes
stronger, more interesting and credible.

them for several sentences, or even paragraphs if necessary avoid mocking an opposing point of
view as it will likely alrenale those readers who don’t agree with you, overall an opponent,
naysayer, or counter argument is often include in an argumentative essay to strengthen its central
clam. This to acknowledge other view point and show how you interact with them as well as
respond to their idea cranially speaking to include guidelines.
 Put the opponent first on any main point. It a good idea to give you argument the
advantages of responding and therefore being heard last by the audience. This because
whatever the audience hears last always remains in their memory the strongest.

them or their ideas with language loaded with negative connotations. This is important
because it is one of many techniques to show you are a person of character who deserve
to be listened to.
 Give the naysayer a pair amount of time to speak. Don’t just include what they believe,
but also the reasons and evidence for they believe it. A good rule of thumb is to give
them at least 114-113 of the body of the essay ensure you are not being/ lopsided in your
argument this can demonstrate that you have done your research and respect your
opponents enough to learn what they have to say.
