PM at CheapWritingService.com How to Improve Writing Skills? Buy a bus ticket, go to the doctor, rent an apartment or just open your mouth to have a normal conversation - for most people learning English, speaking is the most important thing; After all, you learn to communicate first and foremost. But you should not forget that writing is also an important way to communicate - even in the Snapchat and Instagram era. To help you in this area, we have put together seven very practical tips to improve your written English. 1. Read, read, read Have you heard that more often? There, you are not alone. Therefore, reading is commonly recommended if you want to improve your written expression because it just works! As you read, you also get to know the new vocabulary and often come across interesting words and phrases that you can integrate into your own texts. It does not matter what you read. It's about reading a lot and a lot of different things. Novels, non-fiction, blogs, newspaper articles, magazines - just read, and if the lyrics are well written, so much better! 2. Banish these words To take your lyrics to a new level, avoid these little bad guys: very, really, quite, good, got, stuff, and things. You may be wondering if this really works so well if you just leave out a few simple words. But these are meaningless words: they say little and without them, your text means nothing else, but it reads far better! Extra tip: Instead of "very / really + adjective" you can choose an extreme adjective. So, for “very hungry”, just use “ravenous”. And instead of run really fast, use sprinting. Really dirty becomes too filthy. You have hundreds of adjectives to choose from, so use one that matches exactly what you want to say. 3. Use a synonym dictionary After you have eliminated the few meaningful words from your texts, you have to look for a really good substitute. Say hello to your new best friend, the synonym dictionary or thesaurus. With its help, you can replace those words that you use too often with more interesting, suitable or advanced alternatives. (A few examples: cloth> fabric; money> cash; change> age; happy> glad; decorate> embellish; improve> enhance.) If you avoid too common or simple vocabulary, your text will be more individualized and sound more refined or sophisticated. Make sure not to overdo it! Your texts should still be read fluently and appropriate to the respective addressee (see point 5). 4. Use and pay attention to phrases Phrases are phrases that are commonly used, even if another combination would be grammatically correct. In English, one uses, for example, the phrase "heavy rain". You might as well say strong rain - but that sounds very strange to native speakers. Other examples include weak tea (not feeble tea), excruciating pain (but not excruciating joy), tall trees (not high trees), buy time (instead of purchase time), and fast cars (not quick cars), and many more. To acquire such typical phrases helps enormously to make your texts sound more natural. To find out which word combinations are often used, you can start with a basic word - for example, make, do, get, break, tell - and look up the phrases associated with it. Alternatively, you can start with a type and learn some examples by heart. For example, there are the following types: • Adverb + adjective (e.g., bitterly disappointed, completely satisfied, widely available) • Adjective + noun (heavy traffic, strong coffee, severe weather ) • Verb + noun (do your homework, commit suicide, make amends ) • Noun + noun (a liquor license, surge of anger, panic attack ) 5. For whom is a text intended? When writing, it is especially important to always have the addressee in mind. Think about it: You use other terms when you polish up your resume, write homework for the university or write an article for your blog. There are differences in tone of voice and in the choice of words. So before you start writing, think about the following: Should it be a formal text, for example, an application to a university, a job application, or a term paper? Such texts have certain criteria: • Usually complex, with longer sentences and detailed aspects • Less emotional and not meant to influence the reader • Typically, one uses the long form of words here, such as cannot, would not have, television instead of cannot, would not have, TV. However, if you write something less formal, such as a blog article, a personal letter, or a promotional text, then other rules apply: • You can use simpler language and shorter sentences to express your thoughts in an easy-to-understand way • Here you use rather short forms ( cannot, would not have, TV ) • Also colloquial and chitchat that addresses the reader directly fits well here (this includes slang expressions, style figures, snide remarks and personal pronouns ( I, you, my, your ...) • Experiment with empathy and emotions 6. Use active rather than passive expressions For clear, concise texts, it is usually better to write in the active than in the passive. (An example: "The shark bit the surfer" is clearer and a bit more moving than "The surfer what ask by the shark".) There are a number of good reasons to use the passive - for example, if you set binding rules or from a position of authority ("Children are not allowed to swim without an adult"), or to hide the subject of the sentence tactfully ("The cause of the confusion something unknown") - but you should avoid, if possible, too many sentences to formulate in the passive. 7. Ask others for help It's very hard to learn by yourself - so dare and ask for feedback texts. Of course, native English speakers with an interest in texts and language are the best proofreaders, but even non-native speakers with advanced language skills can help you. After your reviewer has annotated or improved your text, you change it accordingly and ask for a last quick look over before submitting or publishing your text anywhere.
