Transitions

Purpose of Transition Words

    Transition words help a written piece to flow more smoothly. Within these types of words, your writing will become choppy. However, sometimes, when a writer is advised to use a new type of device in his or her writing, that person will tend to start sprinkling it in everywhere.

 
Moreover

You can use “moreover” to replace “and in addition.” It normally begins the second independent clause in a sentence.-The hairdresser had dyed his hair the wrong color; moreover, the hair turned green when she tried to correct the error.


Futhermore

You use furthermore to add more information to what was already said or written.Example:We believe that the project is possible. Furthermore, we believe that we can do it within a few months.In addition, additionally or also, joins two sentences (independent clauses.)  The word introduces additional information. 
Examples:-Anne and Alex act and sing.  In addition, they dance.-She must dance gracefully.  In addition, she must dance precisely.


Therefore

Therefore - (used to introduce a logical conclusion) from that fact or reason or as a result; it’s a conjunctive adverb.Examples:-those people have their umbrellas up: therefore, it must be raining-they heard the warning on the radio and therefore took another route


Consequently

“Consequently” is very similar to “so” and “therefore.” Like “therefore” it’s a conjunctive adverb (the term is not important!).Examples:-Hector decided not to use a map; consequently, he got lost and never found his way out of the forest. There he died.
