Students' questions: STARTING ESSAYS WITH 'NOWADAYS' ✍️
Here's a question that I've been asked many times:
Is it ok to start an essay with 'nowadays'?
The quick answer is yes. There's nothing wrong with this word, and the examiner won't reduce your score if you use it.
But be careful. Not all topics can be introduced with the word 'nowadays'. This word is usually used by native speakers to compare the present with the past. For example:
Fifty years ago, only the rich could afford international holidays, but nowadays foreign travel is relatively inexpensive.
📌 My tip: While there's nothing wrong with the word 'nowadays' when it is used correctly, I think it's a bit of a beginner's way to start an essay. If your mind goes blank in the exam, go ahead and use it. Otherwise, I'm sure you can find another way to start your essay.

IELTS imtihoni bo'yicha maslahatlar: INSHOLARNI "NOWADAYS" SO'ZI BILAN BOSHLASH ✍️
Ko'p o'quvchilar mendan "Insholarni 'nowadays' so'zi bilan boshlasam bo'laveradimi?" degan ma'noda savollar so'rab turishadi.
Meni javobim: albatta ha. Bu so'zni hech qanday g'ayritabiiy joyi yo'q va imtihon oluvchi ham bu so'zni ishlatganingiz uchun bahoingizni pastlatib yubormaydi.
Lekin, ehtiyot bo'ling! Barcha mavzularni ham 'nowadays' so'zi bilan ifodalab bo'lmaydi. Asosan bu so'z o'tgan zamon bilan hozirgi kunni taqqoslaganda ishlatiladi.
📌 Shaxsiy maslahatim: 'nowadays' so'zi to'g'ri ishlatilganida hech qanday yomon joyi bo'lmasa ham, fikrimcha, bu insho boshlashni eng sodda usullaridan. Agar imtihonda miyangizga boshqa so'z kelmay qolsa, albatta bu so'zni ishlatavering. Biroq, inshoingizni boshqacharoq uslubda boshlay olishingizga ham ishonchim komil.
