Purpose Linkers from the Ski Dubai Video script
| Purpose Link | Structure | Example from the text | Use / Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| In order to | in order to + base verb | Engineers work continuously in order to keep the snow in perfect condition. | Used to express purpose in a formal way. Shows why someone does something. |
| In order that | in order that + subject + verb | Cooling systems operate day and night in order that the snow does not melt. | Used to explain the purpose of an action when the sentence has a different subject. |
| So | verb + so + result / purpose clause | Fresh snow is added every day so visitors can enjoy a safe skiing experience. | A more informal way to express purpose or result. |
| So as to | so as to + base verb | Machines create artificial snow so as to maintain the correct texture. | Formal structure used to explain purpose. Similar to in order to. |
| So as not to | so as not to + base verb | Machines smooth the snow so as not to leave uneven areas. | Used to express negative purpose (to avoid something). |
| So that | so that + subject + verb | The temperature is controlled so that the snow remains firm. | Used when the purpose clause includes a subject and verb. |
| In order not to | in order not to + base verb | Technicians check equipment in order not to risk mechanical failures. | Used to express negative purpose in a formal way. |
✅ Quick tip:

When the subject is the same, we usually use to / in order to / so as to.
-
When the subject changes, we use so that / in order that.

How to write a
proposal
What a
proposal really is
A proposal is a
document that outlines a plan of action, request for funding, or proposal of an
idea. Proposal writing is a process organizations follow for proposal creation.
Proposal writing can be used in various settings, including business, academia,
and government. In each case, the goal is to present a clear and concise plan
to convince the reader to approve the proposal.
It offers
comprehensive information about the project an organization wants to implement.
It outlines the process and resources required to complete the project
successfully. It also includes the objectives and goals of the project.
What a
typical proposal task looks like
I typical
proposal looks like a report.
When writing a
proposal, there are two things you need to ask yourself before you even start
to make a plan:
- What do I have to include in my proposal?
- Who is going to read it?
As proposals
are written to local or school authorities, tutors or teachers, formal
English is required so contractions, colloquial expressions, slang
or phrasal verbs that convey informality are not allowed.
How to
organise your proposal
1.- Title
2.-
introduction
3.- Topic
Paragraphs (between 2 and 3)
4.-
Conclusion
The
different parts of a proposal
In this part we
are going to look at the example from the beginning of this post again and I’m
going to walk you through writing a proposal step by step so you know exactly
how this whole thing works. Of course, the topic changes from task to task, but
if you understand the essence, you will be able to apply this knowledge to
every future task.
1.-
Introduction
A proposal is a
rather factual and informative piece of writing so it is not your job to make
it sound happy or sensational (as you would in a review or possibly an informal
email). Therefore, your introduction should get straight to the point.
Say what the proposal’s purpose is and what you are going to include. It is
also important to note that you should never just copy the words from the task,
but paraphrase them and use your own words instead.
Some useful
language for an introduction includes (but is not limited to) the
following phrases:
- The purpose/aim of this proposal is to…
- This proposal is intended to
show/discuss/suggest/outline...
2.- Topic
paragraphs
In your topic
paragraphs you deal with the three different main points from the task. As
mentioned above, you are not required to make this sound sensational, but
rather informational and factual.
At the same
time, however, you’re trying to convince the local council to consider
your proposal so you need to use language to make suggestions and to be
persuasive.
The paragraphs
should get headings so it becomes evident very easily what you are talking
about in each section.
Conclusion
Last but not
least, we need a nice and short conclusion to give a last recommendation. Make
sure that you try to convince the reader of your idea one more time.
Recommendations
in the conclusion:
I would
strongly recommend (+verb in -ing)...
It would be
advantageous to...
It is
recommended that...
In
conclusion, I strongly feel that... is/would be the best to...
It would be
a good idea to...
