Oral vs. Written Communication When we write an argument the focus is on the perception of the reader, or our own interpretation of what we have written. When we speak an argument the focus is not only on what we say but how it is expressed. The sophistication of the argument comes from both the words and the way the words are presented. The audiences for written and oral arguments might be the same, but the way they perceive the arguments might be different.
