What are fillers for?

More or less consciously, fillers are used for different reasons, achieving different effects, desired or not, in speech. Some of them are:

• Unconsciously expressing the intentions of the issuer. For example: It's not that I say so, the regulation says.
• Underline, qualify or resignify words. For example: The meeting is not important. I mean: It would be good if you go, but if you miss it, it is not serious.
• Maintain the interest of the recipient. For example: See what I'm going to tell you ... next week they will pass the law.
• Give the speaker a moment to recover from the complications that he goes through at the moment of speaking, set pauses to think in the middle of the exhibition. For example: What was I going to tell them? Oh yeah right ... we have the sentence.
• Generate certain complicities or agreements with the recipient. For example: He didn't even ask me how I felt you understand me?
