Understanding Coherence in Paragraphs

Coherence in a paragraph means that the sentences are logically connected and flow smoothly from one to the next. Good coherence helps the reader understand the main idea easily. Writers can achieve coherence by using transition words, clear topic sentences, and consistent ideas throughout the paragraph. For example, words like 'however,' 'therefore,' and 'in addition' guide the reader through the argument or story, making the paragraph easier to follow.
