Most of the students have an activity of writing essay with minimum words to required, but how can we make a longer essay if we don't know much about the topic that they give to the activities.
This tip may help you to have a longer word than the normal person constructed these words. I love to read essays and I notice these words that commonly used. Let's start this!
First, thing to do is to use transitional phrases that will help you to gain more word count.
"For me," (with 2words) can be replaced by the word "In my own opinion and understanding," (with 6words) that example can be used to have a longer words at the start of creating an essay. The other examples are
"In fact" replace to "as a matter of fact",
"because" replace to "due to the fact that",
"if" replace to "in the event that",
"most" replace to "the majority of",
"although" replace to "in spite of the fact that"
"Twice" replace to "on two separate occasions"
"can" replace to "have an ability to"
"About" replace to "in regards to"
There's a lot of examples other than that and you can create a word like that by describing the words that you want to express before you reach the main point/s, especially if you have a requirement to meet in the essay and it can also help your thesis if there is a requirement of words and pages to meet.
The other tip is to spell out the numbers like "1234" to "one thousand two hundred thirty four" but be careful to always use it specially in dates. You can use this in percentage, average and data have a longer word.
You can also separate the contractions by using "do not" than "don't" "they are" than "they're" and other contractions to count it as a word.
Breaking a paragraph will not help you to add at word count, but it helps you to add spaces and make your essay looks organize and long. But be careful to overuse it may be my recommendation is to use it every 4 sentences only.
Organizing the construction of your essay will help you to determine the introduction and described the things that will help them to add more information before you go to the main point. You can put at least 50-100 words in the introduction before you start.
Then after that you can now go to your main topic and describe every part of the topic and make a sentence as much as you can with the techniques I mentioned before.
And my advice to the last or conclusion is to summarize the things that you said in your essay so that you can help the readers to recall the topic but the real advantage is you will reach the word count requirements.
Another tip to improve your essay is to learn more about vocabularies, synonyms, antonyms and execution of sentences using a dictionary or thesaurus so that you will gain more knowledge and other techniques like I mentioned about transitional phrases and make it unique. But the disadvantages of this is you have a chance to make a redundancy in essay or sometimes it cannot fit into the construction of sentence, especially if you use transitional phrases so use it in the proper ways, but you can improve it as much as you read it again and ask advices to others who already reads you essay works.
So that's it for my advice to summarize it, here is the advices:
1.) Use transitional phrases as much as possible and looks formal.
2.) Spell out the numbers except date and numerical methods.
3.) Separate all the contractions.
4.) Breaking paragraph if you need to reach pages, but it does not help to add in word count.
5.) Organize the constructions of your essay from the introduction until conclusion.
6.) Use dictionaries and thesaurus.
