PROPERTIES OF
WELL-WRITTEN
TEXT
Presented by Sir Jc
 A paragraph is a series of sentences that
are organized, coherent, and are all related
to a single topic.
For a paragraph, or for any composition, to
be effective, it must always consider the
properties of a well-Written text. These
properties are: Organization, Coherence
and Cohesion, Language Use, and
Mechanics.
ORGANIZATION
 TEXT ORGANIZATION

It is the way a text is organized that

helps to guide the reader logically
through it. This property makes a text
readable and its message clear.
Organization can be achieved
through the following techniques:
 PHYSICAL FORMAT

The format is an aspect of the organization

that is immediately apparent to the reader.
It is seen in how the text physically
appears like headings and subheadings,
bullet points or font emphasis. However,
use this technique with discretion as
improper or superfluous formatting can be
confusing.
 PHYSICAL FORMAT

EXAMPLE:

Using headings like headings, bullet

points, or bold text as well as
Introduction, Body, and Conclusion that
organizes a report. This guide the reader’s
eye but must be used wisely to avoid
confusion.
 SIGNAL WORDS

Signal words are textual cues that

readers can use to follow a text. They
can “signal” the transition from one
point to another, the ordering of
events and concepts, or the writer’s
chosen text type (e.g., linear narration,
question and answer).
 SIGNAL WORDS

Example:

• First,
• Next,
• However,
• Therefore,
 STRUCTURE

The structure provides the framework

upon which the text is organized. It
consists of the following:
Beginning: introduction, thesis statement,
hook
Middle: supporting details
End: conclusion, summary, final message
COHERENCE
AND
COHESION
• by coherence, we mean that every
part of a composition must contribute
to one main unifying thought,
which means that the various parts of
a text must follow one another in an
order which makes their relationship
clear. On the other hand, cohesion
means that the overall text has
• .
Cohesion is like how the sentences stick
together. You use words like “and”, “but”, or
“because” to connect sentences and make
them flow nicely. It’s like connecting dots so
everything links smoothly.

Ex: “I like apples. They are sweet and

crunchy”.

Here “They” connects the two sentences, so

they feel linked.
Coherence is about big pictures – how the ideas
make sense together. It’s like telling a story step
by step so the reader can easily understand your
main point.

Ex: “I like apples because they are sweet and

crunchy. They are also healthy and make a great
snack.”

This is easy to understand because the ideas are

in a clear order and all about why apples are
great.
A text with coherence has ideas that
are logically sequenced in a way that
is easy to follow for the reader.
Although without cohesion, no
central concept that links all these
ideas together. The main point of the
text remains unclear for readers.
 A text with both cohesion and
coherence has a central concept
linking all the ideas in the text,
and these ideas are presented in a
logical manner. The main point is
clear, and the text is easy to follow
and understand.
Cohesion = smooth
connection of
words/sentence.
Coherence = overall
clarity and logical flow
of ideas.
Example:

Coherence: A paragraph about

climate change should discuss
its causes, effects, or solutions
– nothing unrelated like a
favorite recipe.
Example:

Cohesion: “Global warming

causes rising temperatures.
This leads to melting ice caps,
which in turn raise sea levels.
( This shows cohesion because each sentence logically connect to the next.
LANGUAGE USE
It is important that you make good
choices when it comes to language
use because how you use language
affects the tone of the text and
the readers’ interpretation of it.
Before writing, you have to think
about and consider your target
audience.
 Informal language is usually
used in writing for oneself or in
writing to family, friends, and
colleagues. On the other hand,
formal language is used in writing
academic, business, and official
texts.
 When you write, you should
also make sure that the
language you use is direct and
simple rather than complicated
so that readers would easily
understand the text.
You should also be sensitive enough
to use unbiased language so that
you will not offend any individual or
any particular group of people.
Unbiased language is language
that is free of racial bias, free of
religious bias, and free of gender
bias.
Proper language use allows you to
capture the message that you
want to convey to your readers. It
is all about choosing the right
words that accurately capture your
ideas.
 However, writers
sometimes encounter
problems with the
following:
 MISUSED WORDS

A writer might sometimes use a word

incorrectly, and this occurs when the
word does not mean what he or she
thinks it does. So, it is important to be
certain of the definition of a word before
using it; this often happens with words
that sound or look alike.
 MISUSED WORDS

Example:

Wrong: “The rescue team salvaged the

survivors.” (“Salvage” is typically used
for objects, not people.)

Correct: “The rescue team saved the

survivors.”
 WORDS WITH UNWANTED CONNOTATIONS

There are words that take on a

meaning specific to a context. Some
writers might not be aware of these
connotations, so they end up using
language that is unintentionally
confusing, comical or even offensive to
readers.
 WORDS WITH UNWANTED CONNOTATIONS

Example:

Wrong: “Her outfit is cheap.” (“Cheap”

can imply low quality and might be
offensive.)

Correct: “Her outfit was inexpensive.”

(“Inexpensive” maintains a neutral or
positive tone).
 TECHNICAL OR HIGHFALUTIN WORDS

Writers want to sound smart by using

words that are very technical or have
deep meanings. Though some writing
genres require the use of such words,
writers should still be careful about
using them since they make readers
work harder to understand texts.
 TECHNICAL OR HIGHFALUTIN WORDS

Example:

Wrong: “The phenomenological

ramifications of the policy were analyzed.”
(The phrase uses jargons that complicates
the message.)

Correct: “The effects of the policy were

analyzed”.
Proper language use allows you to
capture the message that you
want to convey to your readers. It
is all about choosing the right
words that accurately capture your
ideas.
MECHANICS
It refers to a set of conventions
on how to spell, abbreviate,
punctuate and capitalize. It is
important to know and
observe these conventions in
writing to avoid confusion.
 SPELLING

When you write, always make sure

that you are consistently using one
standard with regard to the spelling
of your words. Remember that there
are slight differences in American
English spelling and British English
spelling
 PUNCTUATION

Punctuation is the act of using a

system of symbols such as the comma,
period, quotation marks, question
marks, etc. that are used to give
structure to and organize a text. The
use of punctuation guides the reader
regarding how the text should be read.
 PUNCTUATION

Example:

Let’s eat, Grandma.

Let’s eat Grandma.

 CAPITALIZATION

Capitalization is the act of writing

the first letter of a word in uppercase
while the rest of the letters are in
lowercase. There are rules in
capitalization that one has to
remember. Below are a few examples
of words that require capitalization:
