Use of Language in HAMLET

I'm writing an essay on the use of language in Hamlet and how
it reflects Hamlet's mental state. I have two major points
(the use of contradictions and the repetition). I am hoping
to show that Shakespeare intended Hamlet to be sane but he also
managed to trick the audience into believing that he is insane.
This shows that Shakespeare was truly a great playwright as he
mused his audience by confusing them. Does anyone have anymore
suggestions on another point I could use? I really appreciate
it - thanks!
