Dear material fallacies and informal fallacies are same name for two things.....these fallacies deal with content (meaning) and material (such as everyday language).
Formal fallacies deal with form (structure of arguments). |

Dear if you are studying Introduction to Logic by Irving Copi then its first part or precisely 3rd chapter is related to Language and role of precise definitions for correct reasoning. Symbolic Logic is very easy dear, only you need to understand the concepts. Two Logical connectives i-e Conjunction and Disjunction and one Logical operator i-e Negation are very easy to comprehend. The other two connectives are Material Implication and Material Equivalence which may create little difficulty, but if you get the point then that will also be easy. And rest of concepts such as Formal Proofs of Validity, Rules of Inference and Rules of Replacement are contingent on your understanding the symbols. Well contact me via mail, I would try to make you understand the concept, rest may Allah almighty help you in your endeavors.

I am thankful to all the contributors, i really appreciate your concern.
I recently talked to one of the philosophy teachers at GCU LHR regarding this issue he plainly said that there is no difference between material and informal fallacies. I think owing to his experience, he is an authentic to consult about. Regards |

Based on it i have developed the following understanding about material and formal fallacies. Kindly correct me if i am wrong. Material/Informal Fallacies: They are mainly divide into three groups: a- fallacies of relevance (further divided into 8 types) b- fallacies of weak induction (further divided into 6 types) c- fallacies of presumption, ambiguity and grammatical analogy (further divided into 8 types) Formal fallacies: after studying the chapter of categorical propositions i came to know about following six types of formal fallacies: 1- existential fallacy 2- formal fallacy of illicit conversion 3- formal fallacy of illicit contraposition 4- formal fallacy of illicit contrary 5- formal fallacy of illicit sub-contrary 6- formal fallacy of illicit subalternation Regards Irfan Chatha |

Dear your knowledge of Informal fallacies and their sub types (If you know) is good but you have just mentioned 20% of Formal Fallacies and 5 of your formal fallacies take into account the traditional square of opposition only, you must include the fallacies of Syllogism as well: Fallacy of Undistributed Middle Fallacy of Illicit process Fallacy of exclusive premises Fallacy of Four Terms Fallacy of drawing affirmative conclusion from negative premises Also include the Fallacies of Implication: Fallacy of denying the Antecedent Fallacy of affirming the consequence The difference between Boolean Logic and Aristotelian Logic also gives way to Existential Fallacy. which is also a formal fallacy as the matter of existential import is crucial in this regard. Good Luck.
