1. How can I write a good sentence?

Answer:
 Keep simple. Long sentences or sentences that are too complex do not necessarily make
sentence writing sophisticated. sometimes simple can give a powerful blow
 Use concrete rhetoric. If you're trying to inspire a movement or change, you don't want to
describe something as "sort of" important, especially if you're trying to get people to donate
to a cause, or protest an event
 Employs parallelism. Sentences are easier and easier to read if there is agreement in their
grammatical structure, especially in terms of lists. This principle is known as parallelism,
parallel structure or parallel construction.
 Think about your grammar. The best sentences don't suffer from things like passive
sentences, run-on sentences, or typos. Sometimes you accidentally write incomplete
sentences, or accidentally form fragments when editing and rewriting. Be sure to identify
any incomplete sentences that may be lurking throughout your writing. Proper grammar
helps make writing feel smoother.
 punctuate correctly. Proper punctuation can make or break the rhythm of a sentence. Make
sure periods, commas, dashes, semicolons, and other punctuation tools are applied
correctly

2. How can I make my writing more emphatic?

Answer:
 Put the most important ideas at the end of the sentence. Having the main idea at the
beginning of a sentence is good for keeping the reader informed as early as possible (as is
common with traditional journalistic writing). If you’re looking to maximize the impact of
your sentences, though, nothing beats putting the main point it at the end (especially if it’s a
particularly emphatic point).

 Keep the end short. Resist the urge to add anything to the end of a sentence if you want to
maximize its impact. No clever quips, no qualifying your point and no repeating yourself —
the shorter the sentence, the more emphatic you can make it

 Put all subordinate ideas in subordinate clauses. That way, the delineation between main
and subordinate is clearer. If your sentence combines ideas of equal importance, you may
want to use parallel constructions or semi-colons to improve emphasis.
3. How can I make my writing more coherent?
Answer:
 Adopt a sensible overarching structure. there are different “levels” to an academic paper.
At the lowest level, there are the words that make up the sentences. At the next lowest
level, there are the sentences that make up the paragraphs. Then come the paragraphs
which make up sections and subsections
 Make sure you introduce the reader to the topic and the point. A reader needs to know
what it is you are writing about (the topic) and why (the point). Again, this seems like pretty
banal and uninteresting advice, but it’s super-important and really interesting to see why.
 Keep the focus on your protagonists. everything you write will have one or more
protagonists. The protagonist could be an actual person, or group of persons; or it could be
an abstract concept or idea. Whatever the case may be, it is essential that you keep the
reader’s focus on that protagonist throughout your discussion. They need to know what the
protagonist is up to. If you constantly switch focus — without proper foreshadowing — you
end up with something that is disjointed and incoherent.
 Understand how coherence relations work. the final tip is the most technical. As David
Hume noted, there are a few basic types of relationship that can exist between different
ideas (resemblance, contiguity and cause-and-effect). We can call these coherence relations.
When writing, it is important to use these basic types of relationship to knit your ideas
together. The easiest way to do this is to use connectives, particular words or strings of
words that explicitly signal which type of relationship exists.

4. How can I make my writing more cohesive?

Answer:
 Focus only on 1 point in each paragraph to enhance clarity.
 Write Complex Sentences with appropriate use of Punctuations.
 Link your ideas with Syntax instead of making excessive use of Linking phrases.

5. What kind of linking devices can I use in my academic writing?

 Additional comments or ideas : additional; also; the more so; the more so; again; further;
then; Besides that; also; as well as; in accordance; of course; about.

of; results; it can be seen; evidence illustrates that; because of this; therefore; therefore; for
this reason; because x; it shows that; the following; I; in that case; which implies; The author
(year) suggests that;
 Emphasize the previous statement : However; However; the more so; in the final analysis;
though x; though x; though x; while x might be true, still though; though; in; at the same
time; even if x is true; count
 Introducing an example : for example; for instance; namely; such as; as follows; as
exemplified by; such as; including; especially; particularly; in particular; notably; mainly;
 Summary or Conclusion : in conclusion; therefore; to conclude; on the whole; hence; thus
