Question

what are the effects of pauses in a conversation

Answer 1

To eliminate filler words: Both pauses and filler words are used by speakers to take a break and figure out what they're going to say next. However, a pause makes you sound confident and in control, whereas a filler word is distracting and makes you sound as if you don't know what to say.
