2. Textual Typology What is Textual Typology? Textual typology refers to the classification of written texts based on their purpose, structure, and linguistic features. Recognizing the different types of texts and their unique characteristics is essential for comprehending the complexities of communication and developing strong writing skills. Why is it Important? Mastering textual typology allows you to better understand the intent and structure of various written materials, from academic essays to creative narratives. This knowledge empowers you to engage with texts more effectively, whether you are reading, analyzing, or producing your own written works. Key Text Types The primary textual types are expository, argumentative, and narrative. Each serves a distinct purpose and follows a unique organizational pattern, offering a rich tapestry of written communication.

4. Argumentative Text Purpose Argumentative texts are designed to present a logical, well-reasoned case in support of a specific position or perspective, often with the goal of persuading the reader to accept a particular viewpoint.
