Makale Yazarken Kaçınılması Gereken Fazla Kelimeler

İster dergide bir makale yazın, ister bir tez veya akademik makale, mesajlarınızı kitlenize iletmek için özlü net cümleler en etkili seçenektir. Sözcük dağarcığı düzenlemeyle ilgili bu yazıda, yaptığınızın farkında olmayabileceğiniz bir şey üzerine odaklanıyoruz. Yazınızda birçok cümleyi yakından incelemelisiniz, çünkü burada yaptığımız bazı şeyler sorunlu olduğunu bilmediğiniz şeylerdir!

 

İpucu 3: Gereksiz Kelimeleri Eleme

Bu yazıdan evvel sizlere makale kısaltım ile ilgili ipuçlarını içeren makaleler yayınladık. Şimdiye dek iki tane ipucu : adlandırma ve edat lar için yazmıştık ve önümüzdeki bir kaç haftada sizinle bu yazıyla beraber daha fazlasını paylaşacağız!

 

Dolgu kelime (filler) nedir?

Doldurucu kelimeler (fillers), bir cümlede anlam ifade etmeyen kelimelerdir ve yalnızca alanı “doldururlar” Bizlerde bu yazıları hazırlarken bazen dolgu kelimeler kullanırız. Bunu yapmak bizim için iyi olsa da (kelime sayımı konusunda endişelenmediğimizden ve bilgilendirici ve eğlenceli düzenleme önerileri sunmayı amaçladığımızdan), bir akademik makale veya araştırma makalesi yazıyor olsaydık daha dikkatli olurduk ve dolgu kelimelerden kaçınırdık.

 

Araştırma ve akademik yazımlarda, doldurucular ve diğer gereksiz sözcükleri makalenizden çıkarmalısınız.

Aşağıdaki örnekleri gözden geçirelim:

  1. There is an octopus sitting on top of my car.
  2. This is actually an interesting question.
  3. In order to apply the new method to our entire system, perhaps we should perform a local test.

 

Yukarıdaki cümlelerde doldurucu kelimeleri ve diğer gereksiz sözcükleri bulabilir misin? Gramatik olarak, bu cümleler doğrudur, ancak bazı gereksiz kelimeleri kaldırırsak yayın için daha doğru olurlar.

  1. There is an octopus sitting on top of my car. [10 words]
  2. This is actually an interesting question. [6 words]
  3. In order to apply the new method to our entire system, perhaps we should perform a local test. [18 words]

 

Aşağıdaki revizyonlara göz atalım.

  1. An octopus is sitting on my car. [7 words]
  2. This question is interesting. [4 words]
  3. We should perform a local test before applying the new method to our system. [14 words]

Yukarıdaki örneklerde gösterildiği gibi dolgu sözcüklerini ortadan kaldırmak sözcük sayınızı önemli ölçüde azaltabilir! Ortalama olarak, yukarıdaki cümlelerin kelime sayısını% 25-30 azaltmış bulunmaktayız. En son yazdığınız makaleyi bir gözden geçirin. Şimdi dolgu kelimeleri elimine ederek% 25-30 oranında daha yalın olduğunu düşünün. İnanılmaz, değil mi?
