The reason why Arbies and myself used repetition was to illustrate emphasis on each of our points. In Arbies’ case when he say ‘Look at the table. Look at the table.’ he used it to show how low Chelsea were in the league table. In my case when I say ‘and what, and what and what’ it was to show that there wasn’t really any problem with what his point was trying to state.

I use 2 omissions ‘so what?’ and ‘so?’ to shorten the sentences to almost make the argument flow more. Additionally, I am talking informally to my friend so I had no need to standardise the sentence and choose to keep it informal.

Finally, I used a filler when I said ‘Er’ to give myself some time to fully complete the point I was trying to make and once again it is informal. For it to be standard I should’ve said ‘It was’ rather than ‘Er’. Furthermore, I believe that if a person uses a filler in a argument it could be of a benefit to the opposing side as it shows them that you have got them in a situation they haven’t thought of and they are on the back foot in the argument and are struggling for points to counter your points.
