Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin ignoratio elenchi.

Etymology: < post-classical Latin ignoratio elenchi (1539 or earlier) < classical Latin ignōrātiō ignoration n. + elenchī , genitive of elenchus elenchus n., after ancient Greek ἐλέγχου ἄγνοια (Aristotle).

The fallacy of arguing for a conclusion which apparently refutes an opponent or proves a case, but which in fact has no bearing on the question at hand and is therefore irrelevant.In early use as a fallacy of traditional syllogistic logic; subsequently used more generally of any irrelevant argument.
