Question: (10/4/2009)
what are some good transition words that I could use for my essay? Like instead of "First, SEcond, and Third," what can I use?
Answer: (11/5/2009)
The answer is what the peron stated on the 17th, you do not always have to use a transition word, let your words flow and then your paragraph will flow allowing your essay to get the point across. I think people get wrapped too much in the transition words. Think of how you would say it to someone if you were holding a conversation. Hope this helps.
