NOTE

PARAGRAPHING

Methods of Paragraphing

Paragraphing refers to the way paragraphs are structured and organized in writing. Different methods include:

  1. Indented Paragraphs: The first line of each paragraph is indented (typically 0.5 inches or one tab space) to indicate the beginning of a new thought or idea.
  2. Block Paragraphs: No indentation at the beginning of paragraphs. Instead, paragraphs are separated by a blank line or space between them.
  3. Hanging Indent Paragraphs: The first line of the paragraph is aligned with the left margin, and subsequent lines are indented (often used in bibliographies or reference lists).
  4. Justified Paragraphs: Both the left and right margins are straight or flush, creating a neat and aligned appearance across the entire paragraph.
  5. First-line Indented Paragraphs: Only the first line of each paragraph is indented, and subsequent lines align with the left margin.
