 Hello, lovely! Let's learn about descriptive text! Definition of Descriptive Text Descriptive Text is a text which says what a person or a thing is like. Its purpose is to describe and reveal a particular person, place, or thing. In a broad sense, description, as explained by Kane (2000: 352), is defined like in the following sentence: Description is about sensory experience—how something looks, sounds, tastes. Mostly it is about visual experience, but description also deals with other kinds of perception.

🌈Hey guys, let's learn about a caption text todayπŸ’‍♀️πŸ‘©‍🏫 A   caption   is text that appears below an image. Most captions draw attention to something in the image that is not obvious, such as its relevance to the text. A caption may be a few words or several sentences. Writing good captions takes effort; along with the lead and section headings, captions are the most commonly read words in an article, so they should be succinct and informative. Not every image needs a caption; some are simply decorative. Relatively few may be genuinely self-explanatory. In addition to a caption, —for visually impaired readers—should be added to informative (but not purely decorative) images.
