Show transcript
The purpose of a build-up is to move the main character’s journey forward and build tension. Precise and ambitious vocabulary shows and tells the reader what happened on her journey and how she was feeling. Using a range of sentence types (simple, compound and complex) improves text flow for the reader. An adverbial clause begins with a subordinating conjunction. An adverbial clause is joined with a main clause to form an adverbial complex sentence.
