Imagine yourself in a circle of friends where everyone was discussing one of the problems related to society, such as, for example, "violence".
When participating in a discussion, we have to expose what we think about a certain subject, otherwise, we will be excluded from the conversation, don't you agree?
As with speech, our opinions can also be revealed through writing. But how can we write about something if we don't have ideas to reveal?
It is exactly for this reason that we should practice the habit of reading good books, newspapers, magazines, watching TV news, because they are extremely important communication tools, which help us to inform about everything that happens to our around.
Acting in this way, we will no longer feel that famous difficulty when building a good newsroom, will we? Because everything becomes easy when we have ideas, thoughts to discuss.
As you know, both in speaking and in writing, there is a person who speaks (or writes) and one who hears (or reads) who are called the interlocutors of the dialogue.
This text, in which we have the opportunity to develop our opinions on any subject, is called essay text.
The main characteristic of the essay text is to make the reader believe, trust everything that was written by the other person, that is why we cannot write anything that has no meaning.
The language used needs to be clear, straightforward, promoting a good understanding on the part of those who will read it. Thus, there is a correct form for its construction that we must be aware of:
* Like all text, it must have a title;
* One to two paragraphs containing the main subject to be discussed, also called an introduction;
* The next step is to build another three to four paragraphs, where we will develop our ideas, which receive a specific name, called “arguments”;
* And finally, we have the conclusion, which as the name reveals, we will close, conclude about everything we write, because a text without a conclusion becomes meaningless and ideas remain vacancies.
Now that you've become wise on the subject, you're sure to win the best writer award, every time.
