The feedback on exercise A: Transitional devices

  1. The transitional devices in clip V were:

    finally--> summary or conclusion/time sequence                      

    in conclusion --> summary or conclusion

    first--> time sequence

    when --> time sequence

    that is --> example or illustration

    secondly --> time sequence

    again-->addition

Most of the devices in this clip are already familiar from the previous clips on pages 1-4. There are only two new devices that you should have picked out from this clip. The first is in conclusion and it is not difficult at all to determine which device category it belongs to. The second new device is that is. This expression can be used to give an example or illustrate a point.
