Academic Phrasebank from the University of Manchester is a general resource for academic writers. It aims to provide examples of some of the phraseological “nuts and bolts” of writing. The phrases can be used simply to assist in thinking about writing – it is also possible to transfer some of the words used in particular phrases to others. The phrases are content neutral and generic in nature; in using them, therefore, you are not stealing other people’s ideas and this does not constitute plagiarism.
Users will need to be aware that Phrasebank is not discipline specific, and it does not claim to be comprehensive.
