Cohesion: its Types

Main Article Content

Abstract

Whenever we read a passage or hear some conversation, we find certain resources which determine whether the passage/conversation is a unified whole or not, whether it is meaningful or not. These elements or resources which provide organization to the passage or the conversation not only make it meaningful but also coherent. Thus, the elements which help us to make out the meaning are called cohesive devices and their act of providing coherence is called cohesion.
