Concept in Definition ABC

The term capioso is a qualifying adjective that is used to refer to those expressions, questions or ways of speaking that imply a certain deception or lie in order to confuse the interlocutor. Normally, the term as an adjective is used when talking about leading questions, those questions that are formulated in such a way that the person who must answer them must stop think its meaning because this is not entirely clear.

When we talk about questions or trick expressions we are talking about ways of communicate that are intended to confuse or lose the interlocutor with whom you are speaking. Thus, a question Tricky can cause the answer to be incorrect due to the confusion generated by the question itself. This type of questions or expressions are very typical of areas in which the knowledge or behavior of people is evaluated and in which it is possible to resort to tricky forms of communication to put the other party to the test. Two typical examples of these are educational settings in which teachers can ask their students leading questions to exercise their

understanding about him theme given and, on the other hand, the legal areas in which people who provide statement or testimony about certain facts are put to the test from leading questions in order to check if what they say is true or not.

Generally, the questions or the tricky formulas for the communication are considered fallacies or incorrect because something is being implied that is not the case in reality. However, they can also be seen as deceptive ways that precisely aim to test the interlocutor and decide if he is fully capable of answering that question or if he is truly saying what he really knows or knows.
