A debate, simply put, is like a game, where two or more speakers present their arguments intent on persuading each other. A debate, simply put, is like a game, where two or more speakers present their arguments intent on persuading each other. It is also, a contest, but rather an exciting one when both parties try to oppose the other party's conclusion. The game starts like this:i stink

1) A topic is chosen (e.g, Are toilets needed in classrooms?)

2) One speaker represents yes and one no.

3) They start debating. (e.g below) No: It is very hard for the cleaner to enter the classroom to clean it when the teacher is teaching and it would cause a stench.

Yes: We can use the air freshener, and it is more convenient.

No: It would be very noisy and if the pupil's hands are not entirely dry, it would wet the classroom.

Yes: Then the school can provide bigger classrooms and the teacher could lecture the student for not drying his/her hands.

No: The school has not enough funds. If you think they have, you'll pay for all the schools in Singapore. And very soon, the speaker representing No wins. Although sometimes it can be a little harsh, it is a game of looking ahead and knowing what your opponent would say and avoiding the question first.

What is the debate about the number in your solar system?

It isn't much of a debate now, but it centered on how to define the word 'planet'.

Is fish a meat?

Yes. The flesh of a fish is a protein and is meat. The whole debate is due to the literal definition of meat. You can use a general definition from a dictionary, the criteria used for the food pyramid, a religious definition, or a scientific assessment. The reason a debate even exists is because people use different definitions. Some within the Catholic religion follow a latin translation for definition. This specifically excludes fish, seafood, and insects from the definition. Other translate the definition of "meat" into "RED MEAT". There is no right or wrong. That fish flesh is protein is not arguable, fish is higher in proteins than red meat.
