How do you develop a paragraph by using enumeration? |
[Improve]
Enumeration means breaking a topic down into groups.
Write your topic. Think of ways to break that topic into smaller groups. You might ask "what are the different kinds of ___?" or "What are the characteristics of ___?"
Once you have listed the smaller groups, explain what each group means. Make each statement into a complete sentence, and you have your paragraph!

For Example: WikiAnswers has many different kinds of visitors. Some people just want to get an answer to a question. Some people want to get someone else to do their homework for them. Some people think that this is a chat room and try to chat with someone else by asking questions. Some people spend time editing and correcting questions so that they use proper grammar and punctuation. Some people like to answer questions. And finally, some people - who end up as supervisors - like to make everything neat and tidy by putting things into the right categories, merging questions that mean the same thing, and making sure that most of the answers are correct.
