Aim: | This program is to highlight words from the Academic Word List (Coxhead 2000) in your text. |
Goal: | The words in the list are words that appear more frequently in academic texts than general texts, and therefore they indicate an academic style of writing. Including them in your writing makes your writing more academic in style. Click here to see the words, definitions, example sentences, pronunciation and Chinese translations. |
Input: | Paste your text into the box below, then press the 'Submit' button. |
Output: | This program will output your text with the academic vocabulary highlighted. (See sample) |
