 Properties of a well-written text
• organization
• coherence and cohesion
• language use
• mechanics
• ORGANIZATION represents the way you arrange your assisting phrases. Whether you choose date
order, order of importance, or another reasonable demonstration of detail, a solid sentence always has a
certain organization. In a well-ordered sentence, people follow along easily, with the design you’ve
established.
• COHERENCE is the quality that makes your writing understandable. Sentences within a paragraph need
to connect to each other and work together as a whole. One of the best ways to achieve coherency is to
use transition words. These words create bridges from one sentence to the next. You can use transition
words that show order (first, second, third); spatial relationships (above, below) or logic (furthermore, in
addition, in fact). Also, in writing a paragraph, using a consistent verb tense and point of view are
important.)
• UNITY or COHESION in a sentence starts with the subject phrase. Every sentence has one individual,
managing concept that is indicated in its subject phrase, which is generally the first phrase of the
sentence. A sentence is specific around this main concept, with the assisting phrases offering details and
conversation. In order to create a good subject phrase, think about your style and all the details you want
to make.
• LANGUAGE USE this is how the text is structured , the grammatical features and the word choice.
 Distinguish facts from opinions.
 Include supportive statements when necessary.
 Choose your words carefully.
 Avoid using words like “always” and “never”—these box the writer in and create finality
 Avoid “blanket words”
• MECHANICS -Capitalization and punctuation are the mechanics of writing. They are not simply rules that
we must memorize and follow; they are specific signals to the reader. These mechanics are used to
determine meaning and to clarify intent. It is possible to change the connotation of a sentence by altering
punctuation and/or capitalization."
