Noun
argumentum (plural argumenta)

You may discuss the question of legality on legal grounds, but not by an argumentum ad hominem. Sir John Bayley, 1st Baronet
The argumentum ad personam, is strongly disapproved of in the "academic community.” Respectable critique meets its opponent in its best form; critique honors itself when it overwhelms its rival in the full armor of its rationality. Peter Sloterdijk
