2. What is sweeping generalization?

A sweeping generalization applies a general explanation too extensively. In the event that one takes a general govern, and applies it to a case to which, because of the particular highlights of the case, the control does not have any significant bearing, at that point one submits the broad speculation false notion. This false notion is the reverse of a hasty generalization, which construes a general rule from a specific case.

Example:

(1) Children ought to be seen and not heard.

(2) Little Wolfgang Amadeus is a child.

Along these lines:

(3) Little Wolfgang Amadeus shouldn't be heard.

Regardless of what you think about the general rule that youngsters ought to be seen and not heard, a child wonder piano player going to perform merits tuning in to; the general standard doesn't make a difference.
