Begging the Question This name for a logical fallacy is an interesting example of words having old meanings that are misunderstood today. People don't know the fallacy, and they unwittingly use this phrase in a totally different sense: "which begs the question...". To understand this well, you have to know that "question" doesn't mean a grammatical question. It means a claim, argument, or conclusion. To beg it means to assume its truth without proof or supporting argument.
