There are three ways to expand a definition into a paragraph:

1. Expanding by giving examples- write an example or supporting sentences for reference.

2. Expanding by Comparing and Contrasting- comparison in writing discusses elements that are
similar, while contrast in writing discusses elements that are different. The purpose of
conducting comparison or contrast is not to state the obvious but rather to illuminate subtle
differences or unexpected similarities.

3. Expanding by Describing a Process-Paragraphs are building blocks of paper. It will make your
paragraph broader when you put some process. Example is the process of photosynthesis.
