1.
A text is a passage of words that conveys a set of meanings to the person who is
reading it. It’s a body of written work, in various forms and structures, that can be
words, phrases and sentences that piece together a passage of written work. To
put it as simply as possible, it is a group of words. But it can come in many
different forms.
F. Discussing new concepts What are the different various types of text?
and practicing new 1. Narrative
skills #2 It tells a story, real or fictional. Whether or not the events described really
happened, this type of writing is all about presenting the story in a way that
readers will enjoy and understand. The events don’t have to happen in
chronological order, but they must capture and hold the reader’s attention.
Narrative texts deal with the imaginary or real world and can be fictional (fairy
tales, novels, science fiction, horror or adventure stories, fables, myths, legends,
etc.) and non-fictional (articles, newspaper reports, historical writings).
Example: It was a hot, sunny day. I finally visited Disneyland. It was a dreamland.
I always wanted to visit there. Being there was like a dream come true
experience. On entering, the very first thing that I said, “Oh wow! What a
wonderful place!” People were walking and enjoying their time with all the Disney
characters. Children over there were so happy and excited. I think it is a must visit
place for everyone.
Here the writer is sharing his or her personal experience and emotions. It is a
narrative style of writing.
2. Expository
The main purpose of this type of writing is to explain. In expository writing, the
author focus and emphasis on telling or explaining a given topic or subject. This is
the most common type of writing. There is no place for the writer’s opinion,
emotions, biases or points of view. The main motive of this writing style is to
spread information.The highlights of expository text are it has facts and figures,
organized in a logical order and in proper sequence and it explains the subject.
Areas of Usage
Textbooks Writing, Business writing, Research Papers, Encyclopedias, and
Recipes
Example: The elephant is the largest and the strongest of all living animals. It has
thick legs, small tail, little eyes, large ears, long white tusk, and a long nose which
is its trunk. Elephants are found in India and Africa. They live in herds in jungles.
The elephant is a very intelligent animal and has great strength. Elephants can
carry heavy loads. They live their lives entirely on leaves of trees, grass, and
roots.
Areas of Usage
Speeches, Review, Critical Analysis, Newspaper Opinion, etc.
The example is trying to argue that K-12 is helpful to students and this is an
argumentative style of writing.
4. Descriptive
The main purpose of this type of writing is to describe. It focuses on describing a
character, a place, an event, an object or an action. There is a very slight
difference between expository and descriptive writing styles. The descriptive style
is more detailed, personal and subjective. Also, it uses figures of speech, the
writer makes the readers feel, hear, and visualize the situation the way he wants
and it describes places, people, events, situation, or locations in a highly –
detailed manner.
Areas of Usage
Poetry, Novels, Diaries, Plays, and Journals
Example: A grand exhibition was held in the town. The first impression on
entering the ground was of walking in some fairyland. The vast space was
decorated with so many colorful lights. The stalls, there, were like small shops
and they had all the needful items. All types of amusements could be seen there.
The children were enjoying the ride on merry – go – round, the giant wheel,
railway train and others. The excitement and joy could be seen easily.
In the above sample, the writer wants to describe his visit to the exhibition. It is a
descriptive style of writing.
5. Persuasive
Persuasive writing is unique because it has a very clear and important purpose:
convincing the reader to do something or think something. To succeed at this type
of writing, you need a clear goal. Know what you want the reader to do or believe
after reading your work. The highlights are it asks the readers to do something for
the situation and it has reasons, arguments, and justification.
Areas of Usage
Speeches, Cover Letters, Editorial Pieces, Letters of Complaints, Letter of
Recommendation, Newspaper Opinion, Review, Critical Analysis, Business Idea,
Advertisements or Commercials.
Example:
1. Our store has the lowest prices and the best collection of footwear in the
entire town. Visit us today for a great experience.
2. An LMN mattress is the most comfortable one you will ever sleep on.
Highly recommended by doctors. Give yourself a peaceful sleep today.
In the above examples, the writer is trying to convince the reader for the trial as
used in an advertisement. This is the persuasive style of writing.
