Linking sentences and paragraphs
Smooth, orderly, and logical transitions from one sentence to the next, and from one paragraph
to another, are key to creating clear meaning and flow in any document. This can be achieved by
using prepositional and adverbial phrases, impersonal expressions, verbs, and conjunctions.
These structures are organized here according to their meaning rather than their grammatical
definition.
Expressing personal viewpoints
You may begin a sentence with a phrase such as Selon moi or with a verb phrase such as Je crois
to make it clear that you are giving your own point of view. Here are some examples followed by
a paragraph in which you will notice how transitional words allow the smooth development of
ideas:
Selon moi
In my opinion
À mon avis
In my opinion
D’après moi
In my opinion
Je crois que
I believe that
Je ne crois pas que
I do not believe that
Je pense que
I think that
Je ne pense pas que
I do not think that
Je suis convaincu(e) que
I am convinced that
