Pippa Passes by Robert Browning is also an example of logos. At the time of the 1800’s, English was still being refined. Dictionaries were still being worked on and the accidently thinking one word meant another definition was not as big of a deal. Bryson chose this word and poem in hopes to show that English has changed since 1841 and stills continue to change today. The reason page 71 and on was chosen was because Bryson uses logos to list the reasons English has changed and elaborates them. These reasons are elaborated further in the book, but page 71 is where they are summarized. Bryson lists the major reasons in this list which are: Words are created by error, are adopted from other languages, changed through doing nothing, by changing the word, and just by being created. Bryson also brings up that English has come from many languages because of adoption. English mostly adopted from Latin. Bryson brings up many examples, one of them being that the words entirety and integrity comes from the latin word
