Usually descriptive text is characterized by the use of easy tense and focuses on one object specifically. The object is then discussed again in more detail in the descriptive text. Then what is the difference with recount text?

At a glance, you will see an example of a recount text, which then retells a story that happened in the past, using the easy past. While descriptive text describes something in more detail. Descriptive text can also mean:

  1. Descriptive text provides information about how something or someone looks, this text uses words to describe what something or someone is like.

Characteristics of Descriptive Text
