02. MAIN BODY

2.1. Similarities between paragraph and sentence.


1.Structure.Sentence is the set of words that complete it self typically contains a subject and predicate
convebing a statement suggestion examination or command and consists of a main clause and
sometimes are sarbodinate clause. And paragraph According to John langang third edition 2003 in the
book of English Brush define paragraph is a series of sentence about one main idea or point. A
paragraph typically starts with a point and the rest of paragraph provides specific details to support and
develop that point. So sentence and paragraph they both relate in the structure.

2.Function.Sentence is express a complete through not fragment both its make statement, deriver the
message both is easy to read express a loud as that show it will come a Croxton the reader paragraph is
unified around this main idea with supporting sentence providing details and discussion in order to write
a good topic sentence think about the theme and all the points you want to make.

3.Clarity and cohesion. The both have clarity and cohesion because a paragraph or statement need
cohesion and clarity in order the reader to understand what the topic is about or statement is
about.Both has one single controlling idea that is expressed in its topic sentence which is typically the
first sentence of the graph or sentence.

4. Idea.Both in idea is talking about one idea example paragraph is the series of sentence that are
organised and coherent and are all related to a single topic also sentence is the set of words that
complete it self typically contains a subject and predicate convebing a statement suggestion
examination clause and some times are more sarbodinate clause.

2.2.Different between paragraph and sentence.

1.length. Is the smallest unit of a written piece that express a complete thought. It typically consists of a
subject and a predicate on the ather hand .A paragraph is the group of sentence that revolved around a
particular topic or idea it is no longer than a sentence and provides detailed information. Example
sentence it can be one line but paragraph is more than one line.

2.Definition. Sentence is the set of words that complete it self typically contains a subject and predicate
convebing a statement suggestion examination or command and consists of a main clause and some
times are more sarbodinate clause. Or sentence is the group of word that express through idea by giving
a statement/order or asking questions or exclaiming. But paragraph is the series of sentence that are
organised and coherent and are all related to a single topic .Paragraph is a series of sentence about one
main idea or point.

3.Function. Sentence convey a single complete thought or idea whereas paragraph serve to organised
and develop multiple thought or ideas on a specific topic. So paragraph and sentence it has different
functions. Sentence it can be to locate some thing but paragraph is to explain the idea or the issue.

4.Context.Sentence can stand alone and make sense independently but paragraph really on the context
of surrounding sentence to provide a complete and coherent meaning.So context is the huge difference
between sentence and paragraph. Sentence contain at least one independent clause i.e at least one
subject one verb. Paragraph is a one or more sentence that together supports a single idea usually
encapsulated in the topic sentence for that paragraph.

03.CONCLUSION. Paragraph and sentence is the series of sentence that are organised and coherent and
are all related to a single topic is the group of sentence developing one idea .But both have unity
because sentence without unity or paragraph without unity is nothing and there is the types of
sentences those are simple sentences is the types of sentences that has a single clause which is
independent and it can not take another clause. Ather is compound sentences. This is the types of
sentences which have more than one independent clause same specific conjuction punctuation or both
are used to join together these clause. Also there is the element of paragraph is Coherence means all of
sentence in the paragraph are related to one another
