Argomentazione is a formal or academic term for a structured line of argument or reasoning, more methodical than a simple argomento (argument/topic). It is feminine: la sua argomentazione era solida (her argumentation was solid). In everyday speech Italians more often say ragionamento for informal reasoning.
