When writing argumentative essays, arguments from both sides are considered and a conclusion
is reached. There are usually diversive views about the topic under discussion.

Characteristics of argumentative essays

- There should be a general topic.

- Two or more conflicting points of view should be discussed.

- Arguments for and against each point of view are given.

- Presented points should be expanded to help in paragraph expansion. The writer should
draw a conclusion from the arguments. It can be for or against what is proposed in the
writing.

- Argumentative writing is like a debate; the only difference is that the contrasting points
of view are discussed by the same person. The writer uses connectors of addition and
contrast to project different views. E.g. however, nevertheless, but, on the other hand,
contrary to.
