What is an example of a rhetorical question?
“A rhetorical question is a figure of speech in the form of a question posed for its persuasive effect without the expectation of a reply (ex: “Why me?”) [1] Rhetorical questions encourage the listener to think about what the (Often obvious) answer to the question must be. When a speaker states, ‘How much longer must our people endure this injustice?’, no formal answer is expected. Rather, it is a device used by the speaker to assert or deny something.
