How is "counterclaim" used in argumentation?

1 Answer

Answer:

Hi A counterclaim addresses a readers or audience's disagreement with the speaker's argument. The speaker's goal with a counterclaim isn't to anger their reader or listener but a knowledge that everyone might not agree with their argument but to continue to provide reasons why a listener should accept their argument.

Hope this helps :)
