Improve your Writing with Transitional Words and Phrases-Βελτίωσε το γραπτό σου με συνδετικές λέξεις και φράσεις

A bumpy writing ride

Transitional words and phrases are used to connect one idea to the next. They show how the main idea and its further development are connected within a paragraph or within a sentence. They are like the asphalt (bitumen) that glues the materials of the road surface together.

If the amount of the asphalt is little or of bad quality, then the road surface will come out cracky and rough, and our ride rather bumpy. Likewise, if we use little or inappropiate transitions in our writing, the meanings will be disorganised and the reader will not be able to read smoothly from one point to the next.

On the other hand, too many transitional phrases make our writing unnatural. Thus, it is necessary to fully understand what kind of transitions there are and how they are used.

Two helpful lists follow: the first includes some basic transitional words and phrases  and the second presents links to examples and exercises.
