Using a variety of sentence openers to make our writing more interesting.
One of the most common ways to start a sentence is to begin with the thing being described as subject(first word). So we start with ‘the...’, or ‘she/he/it...’, followed by the verb (action). Starting sentences Eg: The lanky, unkempt fellow slinked down the canal path...
