Want to join the conversation?
- What about a transitional phrase such as Indeed? Which category will it fall in?(9 votes)
- From the categories the article provided, indeed would probably be addition, as it means that you will go into further detail or emphasize something. I would lump it and words like "in fact", "clearly", and "of course" into their own sub-category of addition as transitions that emphasize.(14 votes)
- How is subsequently a cause and effect transition word when it means 'afterwards'? Isn't it a word used for time frame? Then, how is it considered as a cause and effect transition word(it is mentioned as a cause and effect transition word in the article above)?(6 votes)
- where is the video y'all are talking about?(5 votes)
- why is does this system dont work(1 vote)
- If we can identify the nature of the relationship between the sentences, we'll have a better chance of selecting an appropriate transition.(1 vote)
- I've noticed that the video and guide do overlap, but often times they have different strategies and ways of approaching the questions. This makes it rather hard for me to decide how I should approach the passage and questions. When it switches between three different people with different opinions, strategies, and approaches, I feel I have to somehow incorporate it all. It would be helpful if the videos and guide were more consistent and fluid with one another. Does anyone else have the same problem, or is it just me?(1 vote)
- That sounds frustrating. The good thing about seeing these multiple perspectives is that you can try a few and see which ones work best for you. Then you might do better than if you’d only seen one way of going about the test.(1 vote)

- idk what to ask?(0 votes)
- I don't understand the writing questions because they just seem confusing so if there was a way to upgrade the hints or something....(0 votes)
- For these, you need to see which word best correlates with the next line. Usually, you can tell by reading the whole paragraph and replacing the word which each of the options.(3 votes)
