    English writing is creating something that's written in words using the English language. Writing can be done on paper, a computer, or any other medium. It involves using sentences to express thoughts, observances, and ideas. In English writing, you use punctuation marks to show pauses, thought breaks, and ends of sentences to make the communication clear. Much of what we do as people involves either spoken communication or written communication.

    We write many things, such as emails, books, letters, scripts, and directions, using proper English language symbols, words, and marks. These are the structures of language, to help us communicate as humans and put our thoughts and ideas in a more permanent form through writing.‎

    Learning correct English writing is a skill you can use every day. You can learn about correct sentence construction, accurate spelling, how to use different verbs and nouns together, and how to write using proper punctuation.
