Transitional devices are being used by all writers as part of their content writing. These are words or even a group of words that shows relationship between phrases, sentences, paragraphs and sections. It�s not that these words are always present in every sentence. If that happens, it will make your content duller and ineffective.
However, with the correct way of using them, they can help you out to keep your ideas into writing in a flowing manner which means, your ideas will be delivered clearly and orderly without any gaps between them. Furthermore, your readers will find it easy in their part to understand the topic well.
As we�ve reiterated many times before, transitions are a necessary component when looking to improve the quality of your writing. Facilitating a logical progression from one paragraph to another, they make your text convenient to read and easy to follow. At the same time, it hooks up your reader�s interest towards the topic. That is, if you had use these words well.
There are several types of common transitional devices that writers have used to great results. These proven instruments act like bridges between isolated portions of your writing, cuing the reader into how they should interpret any corresponding ideas you put forward.
Below is a list of various categories of transitional devices, each of which helps readers connect ideas and form assumptions, whether they do it by leading, comparing or drawing conclusions. You should also be able to get some ideas from your English writing software, particularly the good ones. As a writer, you must be aware of these common categories of transitional devices in order for you to know how to use these words well. Check out the following elements:
Adding. These transitions add new ideas to previous ones. Examples include �and,� �next,� �moreover,� and �in addition�. It is as if you are continuing your previous idea to the next sentence or paragraph.
Comparison. As the name implies, these transitional devices lead the reader to directly compare the coming idea with the previous ones before it. Examples include �whereas,� �on the other hand,� �nevertheless,� and �despite that�.
Show Proof. These writing instruments let the reader know that you are about to lay proof to a previous statement. Examples include �because,� �obviously,� and �in fact�.
Show Exception. Here, you use transitions to show an exception to a previous idea. Examples include �however,� �despite,� and �in spite of�.
Show Timing and Sequence. In this category, transitions are used to show the timing or the sequence of events. Examples include �immediately,� �after that,� �after a few hours� and �soon�.
To Reiterate. These transitions are used when repeating an idea previously expressed. Examples include �in brief,� �as noted,� and �like we discussed�.
Give Emphasis. Transitional devices are excellent for preparing the reader to receive an idea with emphasis. Examples include �obviously,� �at any rate,� and �without a doubt�.
Notice that as you use these categories of transitional devices in some parts of your content, it provides a clear image and idea which aids your readers to understand the subject more.
