sentences and paragraphs together to allow
the writer or speaker to present his
or her ideas in a flowing manner.
In the following example, the linking constructs
are boldfaced:
ISSD announced its intention to merge
with RTF last month. In addition, the
company stated that it would be extending
its product line to focus on the needs
of Asian customers. At the same time,
ISSD will be selling its South American
consulting unit.
All linking words and phrases can be
reduced in meaning to fit into a category
governed by the conjunctions and, or or
but as follows:

Listing
Listing constructs can be further categorised
into the meanings of enumeration
or addition:
- Enumeration:Enumeration constructs

may be marked by:
last but not least, above all, finally,
to conclude

enumeration may be marked by:

importantly, most important
- Addition : Addition constructs carry
a meaning of reinforcement or comparison.

Example
Example constructs integrate examples
into the sequence of thought. Examples are:
for example, for instance, to illustrate, to
demonstrate, such as
Result
Result constructs express a consequence
of what has been previously stated. Examples

another. Examples are:

.... on the other hand
Concession

problems with a previous statement.
Examples are:

however, in spite of, nevertheless, under
certain circumstances, yet
Using linking constructs
Linking words and phrases are used to
join thoughts together just as the simple
conjunctions and, or and but would be used.
The difference is that linking constructs are
selected based on the type of link the writer
or speaker is making. This technique calls attention
to the transition of ideas taking place
and helps the reader or listener absorb the
information with greater efficiency.Schlagwörter: Grammatik auf Englisch, Englisch Grammatik, Englische Grammatik, Englisch Grammar, Gramatik auf Englisch, Englisch Gramatik, Englische Gramatik, Englisch Grammar, Verbindende Wörter Englisch, Bindewörter Englisch, Englische Bindewörter
