nominalisation in academic writing
Hi Everyone,
Welcome to our newsletter. This week we've released a new lesson on nominalisation.

What is nominalisation?
  • Nominalisation is the process of changing verbs or adjectives to nouns.
Why use nominalisation?
  1. The nominalisation grammatical process develops complex grammar noun-phrase structures.
  2. Nominalisation helps achieve a higher degree of abstraction and technicality.
  3. Nominalisation is a typical feature of academic writing.
