Main Idea Continued  Furniture is a general term; it includes within it many different items. If I ask you to form an image of furniture, it won't be easy to do. Do you see a department store display room? a dining room? an office? Even if you can produce a distinct image in your mind, how likely is it that another reader will form a very similar image? Furniture is a concrete term (it refers to something we can see and feel), but its meaning is still hard to pin down, because the group is so large.  We can make the group smaller with the less general term, chair.  And even more and more specific to: a lime green velvet La-Z-Boy rocker recliner. Note how easy it is to visualize this chair, and how much attitude we can form about it.
