I'm writing a Research Essay about Suicide, and the title I chose is Suicide Sadness. Do you think that its a good title and the teacher won't be too creeped out at me?

Question

yeah, i think its a good one

solomonzelman · Answer

"is Suicide Sadness " is not something I would use. Nice try, but it is just like saying that child abuse is terrible -- but that is obvious (!)

It really depends on what your research paper is about... if it is a factual research about suicides in the US, then I would give it a title in a formal tone.....

@SolomonZelman I don't think "is" is included in the title. I think it's just "Suicide Sadness"

solomonzelman · Answer

still, same point

solomonzelman · Answer

Suicide Sadness is kind of obvious, isn't it?

anonymous · Answer

Well, yeah, but the paper itself is about suicide. The title is a little dramatic, but suicide can be dramatic as well.

solomonzelman · Answer

well, if it is a research paper the title should be a formal one

anonymous · Answer

I agree entirely.
