Text Structure

The structure of a text is very important for a book since through it, we learn to use
appropriate grammar for our writing and from there we use words for our vocabulary.
In addition, writers and readers are important in a text, since they are the participants
in a communicative relationship, where the writer is the one who creates the text with
a purpose towards a recipient, which in this case is the students, who must interpret
the message, and understand its grammar, vocabulary, among other things. It’s
important to understand what the writer means so that we can understand the
message, if we don’t understand the context, it will be hard to get to de main idea of
the text and we might get confused
Communication is vital to be able to give a clearer idea of what is meant and this in
writers is what exists by making a connection with the readers which makes the
message transmitted from what is written understood and understood by the reader
in the same way.

What this message wants to convey is that whether you are a reader or not, what
we are learning and understanding from the text helps us improve reading
comprehension and spelling. I saw it that way.

Structure Types of Text

The types of texts are fundamental in the way you want to convey what you want to
communicate and that is why you need to know each one to have a broader and
clearer idea of how, when and where to use them and of course in the best possible
correct way.

English text types are classified according to the writing mode used. Some types of
English text seen in class are: Description, which convey observations and
sensations of places, people, objects, etc., to the reader so that they recreate the
author's experience, but without telling a story; Sequence events are those that
narrate a series of events or actions in a logical and chronological order like a recipe;
Cause and Effect texts are those that are primarily used to communicate the causal
relationship between an event, action, or idea and what follows, the text is designed
so that the causality and correlation between the two are clear to the reader, this text
is used in both educational and historical literature; Compare and contrast, this is a
structure that allows you to analyze the similarities and differences between two
topics, which can be about people, places, events, ideas, or concepts; finally, we
have the structure of the Problem and Solution text, which is designed to present a
problem and move on to a proposed solution for that problem, it also serves to create
reasonable cases of why the problem exists or is important and why the proposed
solution can be effective, this text design is common in political literature and
discourse, as well as in business and technology.

Cognates are words that share the same etymological origin, but have undergone
different phonetic changes throughout linguistic history. These words are found in
two different languages and have similarities in pronunciation and spelling.

Cognates are words that share a similar spelling and meaning in two languages;
There are three categories of cognates, the first is the Perfect Cognat, which are
when the meaning, spelling and sound are identical, the only difference is in the
pronunciation; the second category is the True Cognatate or Easy Cognat, It occurs
when a word is spelled the same or similar and often sounds the same in both
languages, in other words, it is almost perfect, but not identical; the third category is
False Cognates, also called False Friends, they are words that look and sound very
similar in the two languages, but do not have the same meaning.

Cognates are very important as they allow us to acquire new vocabulary more
quickly, also recognizing cognates helps to have better communication while building
a general vocabulary, in addition, they help to improve both the construction and
comprehension of texts and to have a better pronunciation.
