Precise language is important because it makes arguments easier to understand, more convincing, and well-organized. Using different types of definitions helps explain words clearly and keep ideas consistent. Emotive language can make arguments weaker because it uses feelings instead of facts, which can make the argument unfair or misleading.
Common logical fallacies in reasoning include:
Relevance errors: attacking the person (ad hominem), distracting from the topic (red herring), relying too much on experts (appeal to authority), or using emotions instead of logic (appeal to emotion).
Lack of evidence: making quick judgments (hasty generalization), thinking one thing caused another without proof (false cause), assuming something is true because it hasn’t been proven false (appeal to ignorance), or saying one thing will definitely lead to a big problem (slippery slope).

Diagramming diagrams to show how ideas connect can help find gaps in logic. Also, summarizing makes arguments shorter and easier to follow, while paraphrasing means saying the same ideas in a different way, which helps understand and analyze arguments better. In addition it is a method used to understand how someone thinks. This technique breaks down the reasons (premises) from the main point (conclusion). It also helps to spot weak points or hidden errors in the argument.
