Recount texts can also be entertaining. Sharing a funny

story about a trip or a dramatic competition can be a great way
to connect with others. These types of recounts can build

friendships and create a sense of shared experience. So next

time you have a story to tell, remember, that you might be

creating a recount text with a powerful social function.

B. Generic Structure

b.1 Generic Structure
Recount texts, those captivating narratives that share

personal experiences or factual events, follow a specific structure

to ensure clarity and engagement. This structure acts as a

roadmap, guiding readers through the unfolding story. Let's
delve into the three key components that make

up a recount text:

a. Orientation, the first structure that contains information

about characters, places, when the events take place and

so on. The information provided by the author is
expected to provide knowledge or information needed by

the reader in order to understand the storyline.

b. Events, the second structure is the content of the text or in

the form of a story about events and experiences that the

author wants to convey to the reader.
