Why transition words matter

Transitions help readers understand how one idea relates to another. They can signal contrast, sequence, addition, cause, effect, examples and conclusions.

Good writing does not require a transition in every sentence. Overusing the same connector can make writing repetitive, so the purpose of this tool is to help you inspect patterns rather than enforce a fixed formula.
