What is a "paragraph"?
A paragraph is a distinct section of writing that presents a specific idea or topic, typically consisting of several sentences. It begins with a topic sentence that introduces the main idea, followed by supporting sentences that provide details, explanations, or examples. A well-structured paragraph maintains a clear focus, ensuring that all sentences relate to the main idea. Paragraphs are significant for organizing thoughts in writing, making it easier for readers to follow the writer's ideas and arguments.
