Beautify your Essays with the Proper Use of Connectives

Symbolic Represenation of Connectives Pic Credit: Google Search I came across various types of confusion among students surrounding the use of connectives. Therefore, I decided to write a post and try to clarify some of those confusions and thus help them take advantage of these linking words and phrases (connectives can be single words as well as phrases) to beautify their essays. Connecting Sentences First of all , connectives can be used within paragraphs to connect two or more related sentences. I guess there is not much confusion in there. As you have seen in this paragraph itself, I am using connectives from the start. Don't be obsessed, however , in using such words. If you use them too much then it might ruin your essay, as too much repetition of such words can render your essay boring to read, which, in turn, can hurt your scores! Therefore , stay in safe side by using the connectives in appropriate places only.

Is an ageing population necessarily a bad thing?

Source: www.un.org Note: This article is just for brainstorming and getting ideas. It is not a proper GP essay! In developed nations, an increasing proportion of senior citizens in their population has been observed.
