Repeating Words In Academic Writing by Divinwac(m): 5:13pm On Apr 20, 2023
Repetition of concepts, words, or phrases can become monotonous and redundant in academic writing. However, there are techniques you may take to reduce repetition in research topics in academic writing and improve the readability of your work.

There are two ways a writer can use repetition in their education research topics or study. One is when the author repeatedly states concepts even when it is not necessary to do so. The second is when the author uses the same words, phrases, or sentences throughout different sections of the research report. These two things can reduce the attraction of a piece of writing.

Read aloud.
Put yourself in the reader's position and read what you have written. This is an excellent opportunity to clarify your message to the reader. Find out whether there is any unnecessary repetition by reading aloud or reading aloud to yourself in a reader-like manner. The greatest technique to identify repetition and correct it is in this way. Reading aloud has additional advantages, and it's the greatest method for catching errors.

edit three times.
Edit your work as many times as necessary until you are happy with it, both as a writer and as a possible reader. Some students finish writing the first draft of their essay while kicking back and relaxing. individuals believe that the task they need to undertake has already been completed. However, this is untrue! You must read the initial draft several times once you've finished writing it to catch any errors or repetitions. This typically takes a long time because when you read it in Wikipedia, you catch errors that weren't as clear when you initially wrote it.

Ask a professional in your industry to read and edit your work, such as a teacher, friend, supervisor, research advisor, or any other person. You can ask a linguist to read your writing if you are unsure of your language proficiency. There are many alternatives, and using this can help you identify any ideas, words, or phrases that repeat themselves and that you can change.

People are so lazy to read through their works before throwing them to the public for consumption.
This unnecessary error tends to reduce the value of their good works.
