Difference between French and English essay
Hi, I've been writing French essays, and my tutor pointed out some differences between English and French essays. I listed them below. Do you have any more ideas? If you know more about French essay writing techniques, I would like to hear it! Thanks,
1 English uses more capitals than English.
Example : in Titles
en The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
fr Le Bizarre Incident du chien pendant la nuit
2 English essays allow you to repeat words to be used like a keyword. French essays avoid repetition.

3 English essays say things straight forward, while French says it more indirectly.
I don't have a source for this, but that was the comment I got from my coach. If anyone can back this up, I would like to hear it too.

I remember when I was preparing for my English exams, I had to write a bunch of essays and it was really overwhelming. That's when I came across an essay writing service cheap in 24 hours right here https://99papers.com/ and they helped me a lot. Not only did they deliver quality work quickly, but they also gave me tips on how to improve my own writing. This is a resource that I would definitely recommend to anyone who is struggling with deadlines and trying to master their skills.
