In C, we call functions:
"Hello, is function there?"
If we have something to tell the function, we pass arguments to the functions:
value = GetValue("did not", "did too");
And if there are many arguments, we will group them and then pass pointers as arguments to the function:
value = GetValue("he did it", "no, he did it", "yeah, but he started it");
I don’t like confrontation, so I prefer the term “parameter” instead of “argument”.
“Present your case,” the LORD says. “Bring forward your strong arguments,” The King of Jacob says.
Isaiah 41:21

A certain Monty Python sketch comes to mind.

I am sad to admit that my knowledge of Monty Python is limited to only The Holy Grail and the lumberjack song. I assume that you are referencing something other than those.
