and coherent flow, making it easier for the reader to follow the argument or
narrative).

1. Transition Words and Phrases
Transition words and phrases are essential tools for connecting ideas between
paragraphs. They guide the reader through the text, showing how ideas relate to one
another. For example, words like "however," "therefore," "moreover," and
"consequently" signal relationships such as contrast, causality, addition, and result
respectively.
- First paragraph "Renewable energy sources are essential for reducing carbon emissions."
- Transition using pronoun "This reduction is crucial for mitigating the effects of global
warming."
- Next paragraph "Mitigating global warming requires concerted efforts from all sectors of
society."
