Why Sentence Length Matters
Varying sentence length creates rhythm and keeps readers engaged. Too many long sentences cause fatigue; too many short ones feel choppy.
Ideal Ranges
- Average: 15-20 words per sentence is ideal for most writing.
- Short Sentences: Use for emphasis or punchy statements.
- Long Sentences: Limit these. Break up sentences over 25 words.
Readability Impact
Academic writing tends toward longer sentences, while web content favors shorter ones (14-17 words average).
