Writing to Explain

1. You should become proficient at writing explanations since it's the most effective approach to get a
point across to a big, dispersed audience. Plain text is portable and takes up little room in a drawer
or hard drive, whether it is digital or printed. Furthermore, plain text is simple to share and index.

Additionally, when writing to explain anything, effective writing often precedes smart thought.
Explaining forces, you to make logical links between topics and distill complex ideas into understandable
analogies and practical suggestions.

2. The structure when Writing to Explain is:


 For your introduction, a concise first paragraph that draws the reader in and makes it obvious
why this explanation applies to them.
 Plan out the three to five key points about your subject that you believe need to be explained
and are most important to your audience for the body of your essay. Select the most crucial
details rather than feeling like you have to explain everything. You should explain technical
terms, use similes and metaphors to help readers understand new concepts by comparing them
to concepts they already understand, use anecdotes, examples, and evidence to add depth, and
each point should be covered in a separate paragraph with a detailed explanation so that the
audience understands each one.
 In your conclusion, you can either restate the information you've just given or focus more on the
actions your audience can do now that they understand what you've just presented.
3. Some tips when writing to explain are:
 keep in mind to carefully analyze the question and adapt your text to the intended
audience.
 You can use this as a starting point or introduction to your explanation, but you should be
careful not to describe anything that your audience will already know about. Keep in mind
that your audience will already know something about this topic.
 Be direct, succinct, and laser-focused on the subject matter of your assignment.
 Provide specific information; stay away from being ambiguous or overly broad
 connect ideas and important topics by using transitions (e.g., however, therefore, etc.)
 To ensure that points are developed and flow into one another seamlessly, identify a crucial
word or phrase from the previous paragraph and repeat it in transition sentences at the
start of the subsequent paragraph.
 Include background information on the subject
 Mention potential arguments and key issues
 Respond to questions like "what" and "who? "why? What's the purpose? When? how?
 Keep in mind to explain rather than convince throughout.
4. The use of writing to explain is general in its sense, you use this to just explain something you want
others to know about or you want to convey a message.
5. It brings our knowledge, personal goals, and work for the future to the attention of others. Writing
allows us to communicate our thoughts to both ourselves and to other people while also preserving
our personal memories and experiences. You can only do it yourself. Writing helps you connect with
yourself in this way.
