After doing this exercise I realized I repeat a few words a lot in my writing. But one thing I am good at not repeating is transition words at the beginning of a sentence such as: but, however, in fact, moreover, in conclusion, yet again, etc. I found that after looking it over I do not repeat the same transition words more than twice, where I was thinking I might have done it a lot. Words I did repeat however were ones that tied thoughts together in a sentence such as and, I wrote the word several times throughout my two pages and in total throughout the whole paper I wrote it 88 times. I also noticed that I wrote the word that, a lot as well, and in most cases I found that the word was not necessary to the sentence flow. So going forward I will work to remove the amount of times that I say: and, as well as: that, to cut down on the amount of unnecessary words and create short cohesive sentences that pack more of a punch.
