Show transcript
Essays can either examine both sides of an issue in a balanced way, or they can argue persuasively on one side only.
Essays include subject-specific language and they are written in formal tone.
A one-sided essay presents a logical argument that reveals a series of points.
Points made within essays must be explained and backed up by evidence in order to be effective.
A range of fronted adverbials, sentence types and parenthesis in brackets are linguistic features of essays.
