RECOUNT In our life, time goes by until some of us die. We surely go through this life ing the time. During the whole of life, we have many happened experiences that we left behind. Sometimes we those experiences and sometimes we forget about them. In fact, we keep some of the events in our memory. They become our unforgettable experiences. Some are nice and some are bad experiences. What is Recount? A recount is a type of spoken or written text that deals with past experiences. The function is to retell some events that happened in the past for certain purposes; to inform and or to entertain the listeners or readers. A recount text has a generic structure, having three components (one is optional). They are: (1) Orientation, (2) Events and (3) Reorientation (optional). Recounts are principally not the same as Narratives although both talk about past events. Narratives deal with problematic events, which lead to a crisis or turning point which in turn finds a resolution while recounts do not have to come to a serious crisis or complication. A. Generic Structure of Recount Text

B. Generic Features of Recount text 1. The recount focuses on a sequence of events all of which relate to a particular occasion 2. It introduces specific participants 3.

Q: Can ‘due to’ and ‘because of’ be used interchangeably? A: No. ‘Due to’ is used to modify nouns only. ‘Because of’ is used to modify verbs. Thus, these two expressions cannot be used interchangeably.

What is “Due To” Used for? The expression „due to‟ can only be used to modify nouns. Thus, you cannot use this expression to present reason for an action in the clause.

In sentence 1, use of „due to‟ is incorrect because it is used to explain „why it is cold‟. In other words, it is used to explain the reason behind the “verb” or “action” in the clause. This is not idiomatically correct

In sentence 2, use of „due to‟ is correct because it is used to explain the reason behind „the cold wave‟. In other words, it is used to explain the reason behind the “noun”. This is idiomatically correct. „Due to‟ is correct if the sentence makes sense when you replace „due to‟ with ‟caused by‟. If, it does not, then use of „due to‟ is not correct.

Here when „due to‟ is replaced with ‟caused by‟, the sentence does not make sense. This check also proves that usage of „due to‟ is incorrect.

Here when „due to‟ is replaced with ‟caused by‟, the sentence makes complete sense. This check proves that usage of „due to‟ is correct.

What is “Because of” used for? The expression „because of‟ is used to modify entire clauses. Thus, you can use this expression to present reason for an action in the clause. Sentence 1 above can be corrected by replacing „due to‟ with „because of‟. Now „because of‟ modifies the clause presenting the reason why it is cold in Arizona.

What are correct and incorrect usages of „Due to‟, „Caused by‟,& „Because of”? 

The parent-teacher meeting was canceled due to heavy rains. – INCORRECT „Due to‟ modifies the action in the preceding clause and hence is not used correctly.



The parent-teacher meeting was canceled caused by heavy rains. – INCORRECT Note how when “due to” is replaced with “caused by”, the sentence no longer makes sense.



The parent-teacher meeting was canceled because of heavy rains. – CORRECT „because of‟ modifies the action in preceding clause, indicating why the meeting was canceled.



The cancellation of parent-teacher meeting was due to heavy rains. – CORRECT „Due to‟ modifies the noun – cancellation.



The cancellation of parent-teacher meeting was caused by heavy rains.- CORRECT Note how when “due to” is replaced with “caused by”, the sentence makes complete sense.

A traditional saying that expresses some obvious truth or familiar experience d. A popular saying which contains advice or states a generally accepted truth. Functions: a.

To stress shared values Example of common proverb: “When in Rome, do as the Romans”. Act the way that the people around you are acting. This phrase might come in handy when you're traveling abroad notice that people do things differently than you're used to. "You can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs." When you try to do something great, you'll probably make a few people annoyed or angry. Don't worry about those people; just focus on the good results.

"Don't bite the hand that feeds you." If someone's paying you or helping you out, you have to be careful not to make them angry or say bad things about them. “You can‟t judge a book by its cover” Things sometimes look different than they really are. A restaurant that looks old and small might have amazing food, for example “You can lead a horse to water but you can‟t force him to drink” If you try to help someone, but they don't take your advice or offers, give up. You can't force someone to accept your help.
