plot
Usage Note
Argumento is a near-false friend: it primarily means a reasoned argument or line of reasoning, and also the plot or storyline of a book or film (el argumento de la novela). For a heated quarrel, Spanish uses discusión or pelea, not argumento.
Examples
"Su argumento fue muy convincente."
Natural Translation
His argument was very convincing.
