Expert writing Tips

Best practice

Avoid using "as discussed relatively". Opt for clearer and more grammatically sound alternatives like "as previously discussed" or "as discussed earlier" to enhance clarity and readability.

Common error

Do not mistakenly use "relatively" to modify "as discussed". "Relatively" typically compares degrees or amounts, and its placement after "as discussed" creates an awkward and grammatically incorrect construction. Use it with quantifiers instead.

Linguistic Context

The phrase "as discussed relatively" attempts to connect a statement to a prior conversation while adding a degree of comparison. However, Ludwig AI indicates that the phrase is grammatically incorrect. Its intended function is to refer back to a previous point, but the addition of "relatively" is confusing.
