Talk:Syntactic ambiguity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In business communication, emphasis is placed on clear and direct communication, yet it is also said that some business communication effectively employ ambiguity. What are some of the instances that require a degree of ambiguity, and what are the reasons they require it? I kindly need at least three examples. Thank you.
[edit] More ambiguous sentences?
