Rule reminder

To introduce examples in formal Italian essays, use: 'ad esempio' (for example), 'si pensi a' (think of / consider), 'un caso emblematico è' (an emblematic case is), 'basti pensare che' (just consider that), 'si consideri il caso di' (consider the case of), 'a titolo di esempio' (by way of example), 'come dimostra il caso di' (as the case of... demonstrates). Examples must be specific and directly support the argument.
