Hedging involves using less direct language to make one's views more measured and cautious, which is crucial in scientific and academic writing.
The video covers various techniques for hedging, including the use of verbs such as "appear," "seem," and "tend" to introduce an element of doubt, as well as adverbs like "reasonably," "relatively," and "reportedly" to reduce the certainty of a statement. It also discusses how certain words can be used to make adjectives weaker or stronger.
The video concludes by emphasizing the importance of hedging in academic English, highlighting its role in making claims or stating opinions more cautiously and accurately.
