A descriptive essay uses the senses to describe something
to the reader. It uses the senses such as smell, hear, taste,
or feel. It is more than telling a person something. It uses
words to write a verbal picture. It does not just tell the
reader about an object, but the words describe what the writer
wants to show. Using nouns it allows the reader to see. Using
verbs gives them the sense of feeling. A descriptive essay
may be objective or even subjective. The writer uses tone,
diction, and attitude to get the message to the reader. The
purpose of a descriptive essay is to get specific and concrete
details to the reader about an object or place.
