Descriptive Essay
Concept.
A descriptive essay is a type of essay strives to create a deeply involved and vivid experience for the reader of the item being described. It is often creative, personal. The purpose of a descriptive essay is to describe a person, place, or thing in such vivid detail that the reader can easily form a precise mental picture of what is being written about. The author may accomplish this by using imaginative language, interesting comparisons, and images that appeal to the senses.
The Most Important Features:
• This type of essay is focusing in descriptions on the senses, to provide vivid and specific details that show to the readers rather than tell to the readers what we are describing. The best way to create a vivid experience for readers is to focus on the five senses. Sight, sound, smell, touch, taste
• Descriptive essay permitted that use a fresh language, or use examples, take something ordinary and by comparing it with something extraordinary, make it interesting. A well-focused subject can be ordinary or extraordinary, but should strive to make it as interesting as possible by emphasizing what makes it interesting or new and unusual.
• Gives plenty of specific descriptive detail. It describes an event and creates a dominant impression for the readers.
• Descriptive essays have a clear pattern of organization. Introduction should work from general to specific, ending in a thesis sentence. Should have several paragraphs that develop and describe the topic, and the conclusion should restate the thesis or conclude the event.
