Explanation:

Cooperative phrases promote open - mindedness, respect and further discussion. Conflict - creating phrases are dismissive, confrontational. "I don't understand what you're saying. Could you clarify?" shows a willingness to learn. "Your perspective is limited. So you can't see the truth." is demeaning. "I understand what you mean, but let's ask if everyone feels the same way." is inclusive. "I am open to your views, but would you mind considering my perspective as well?" is respectful. "What I say is right because I have proof. Do you still want to argue?" is aggressive.

Answer:

Cooperative phrasing:

• I don't understand what you're saying. Could you clarify?
• I understand what you mean, but let's ask if everyone feels the same way.
• I am open to your views, but would you mind considering my perspective as well?

Conflict - creating phrasing:

• Your perspective is limited. So you can't see the truth.
• What I say is right because I have proof. Do you still want to argue?
