Example[edit]

Not sure if this should be listed on the page but http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/appeal-to-authority.html lists "Also Known as: Fallacious Appeal to Authority, Misuse of Authority, Irrelevant Authority, Questionable Authority, Inappropriate Authority, Ad Verecundiam"

It makes me wonder if it's ever shortened further by dropping the 'ad'. Do people ever say just hominem/verecundiam? Etym (talk) 08:22, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
