Show transcript
An explanation text is a non-fiction text that explains a particular process or subject in detail. An explanation text can start with an introduction and then explain a sequenced process in chronological order. Vocabulary within an explanation text is subject-specific and factual, creating a formal tone. Ordering fronted adverbials indicate the chronological order of steps in a process. Fronted adverbials of cause link an effect to a cause.
