It is the writer's effective use of words and phrases that makes sentences effective or ineffective. The English language is made up of nearly a million words and phrases. A writer, especially one whose English is not his or her first language, may face two major problems in writing: not knowing \"enough\" words; and not knowing how to choose the \"right\" words. Writing is made up of words. Effective writing requires having a good stock of vocabulary, as well as selecting the most suitable words and phrases to express the intended ideas. There are many English words and phrases that are frequently confused and misused by ESL learners.
