In the wake of giving brief acquaintances with both corpus linguistics and the possibility of meta-argument, I will examine three pilot concentrates on that were led utilizing the open access News Online corpus to explore the utilization of the expressions "misrepresentation," "name-calling," and "tricky slant," separately. It was explored whether every one of these terms showed up on internet based news sites, and the destinations' adjustment to the norms of utilization laid out by argumentation scholars was assessed. In every one of the three pilot projects, charming data about how non-experts utilize the wording was uncovered, and this, thusly, prompted a few instances of the different kinds of arguments that were examined.
