Generalisation+&+caution

In some academic writing it will be necessary simply to give and describe factual information. Often, however, it is necessary to make general comments or to generalise the information. Generalisations can be more precise by qualifying them. o A generalisation is a general statement opinion that is based on only a few facts or examples. o We generalise about something when we form an opinion or make a statement using only a small amount of information instead of looking at the details. Form ** o To tend (not) to DO… o To have a tendency to DO… o To be inclined to DO…. Doctors **//tend to//** earn more money than teachers
