Are their any more premise or conclusion indicator(s) words that have been found that we can add to the list?
And even words indicating a switch in the argument?

Thanks guys. I appreciate the info.
English being english, i don't think there can be an exhaustive list of conclusion indicators. But most commonly used indicators can be found in video referenced above.
So this is not a "word" or even a "new word", but one of my favorite ways the LSAT writers will sometimes write their premise-conclusion is through an embedded clause.
Example:
Therefore, since this cat jumped 5 feet high, cats can jump five feet high.
Premise: This cat jumped 5 feet high
Conclusion: Cats can jump 5 feet high
So even though a conclusion indicator word is the first word, the conclusion is not be stated till much later in the sentence.
I know this is not what you asked for, but I thought I should add it just in case <3
I have them but I am looking for more. Thanks though! :)
If you go to minute 3:00 of this lesson https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/3-ways-to-identify-premises-conclusions/ you'll find a list or you can scroll down to #3. I hope that helps!
