Abstract: in this article authors made effort to distinguish the most substantial features of essay writing. On the basis of their talk essay has some resemblance with other pieces of writings. However it has sturdy specificity that makes it differ in terms of length, structure and procedure. Throughout the article we will get detailed and precise data about the certain type of writing that is called essay.

Writing essay at first sight seems to be the toughest activity. But if the person acquires the particular strategies of dealing with essay he no longer sees any challenges in writing. This is the special type of writing which is more different than other pieces of writing. So question arises why we are in need to learn or to obtain the knowledge of writing essay. What is the peculiarity of the essay that makes it different from other writings?
Well this is quite discursive question however the answer is obvious.
Because in essay writing you go deep inside your brain in chasing the ideas refer to the topic. Unlike the article or letter writing here you go through several stages. And this is called writing process.
It includes following options:
> drafting
> revising
> editing
> proofreading
> publishing [1].
Here it gets more confusing because these criteria can also be included in other types of writing. For instance in article or report writing you're supposed to follow this process too. Nevertheless in essay writing your approach toward these options will be more different.
As though in drafting you come along with some activities which help you to provoke comprehensive ideas about the topic. This will be done before switching to drafting.
Brainstorming, free writing, listing and clustering are the significant thought provoking methods promising you to make progress in writing concise and coherent essay.
In other types of writing you simply turn to writing draft after reading some sources. It makes you dependent on the material you've used.
So in general this is the basic variety of essay than other compositions. But it works if you possess this skill in a better sense, you almost constructed the foundation of being a good writer. And now let us highlight the structure of essay which became the backbone for all writings. Yeah you are right. I'm talking about three major structure of writing that is to say: Introduction, body and conclusion [2].
If we look closely we guess that all types of writing nearly obey this scheme. Even our speech that is lead in an oral way also involves this pattern. For example when we talk to someone at first we greet then we move to the core unit of our talk and then we end the conversation. This illustration is the bright evidence of the essence and significance of essay rather than other writings.
So back up the structure - every point has its distinction.
The introduction - consist of 4-5 sentences. It has general idea, supporting and thesis statement. For this - Introductory paragraph is perceived as the crucial among others.
Because here we mention our position furthermore by this we cite the main idea of the essay. By reading this part reader makes a decision whether to read the rest of the text or not. That's why introductory paragraph considered to be the most important one.
The body contains at least 3 paragraphs. Where the writer explains the reasons why he has the argument given in the introduction.
Here the writer finds out several points and outlines them in a form of topic sentences (TS-MSS). The topic sentence is the main idea of the paragraph. Bear in mind that thesis relates to the whole essay, but topic refers to one paragraph.
So every topic sentence will be described with details. In linguistics we call them as supporting sentences (SS) [2].
Finally the conclusion - this part also compiled with 4-5 sentences. Where the writer summarizes the points mentioned throughout the essay.
One technique to do it effortlessly is to paraphrase the thesis statement by making it more general.
By the way don't forget about the most noticeable phenomenon while writing essay - the use of transition devices. It is very important. Use various linking words to connect your ideas adding your composition, coherent and colorful structure which merely urges the reader to have a good impression about your essay.
So these are the things we wanted to share with you. Hope you got everything. Have a nice journey in your writing profession.
