A paragraph typically contains 3 to 7 sentences , but this can vary depending on the purpose and style of writing.

Key points about paragraph length:

• Standard paragraphs often have around 4 to 5 sentences.
• In academic writing , paragraphs tend to be longer to fully develop ideas.
• In journalism or online content , paragraphs may be shorter (sometimes just 1-2 sentences) for easier readability.
• The main goal is to group related ideas together clearly, so the number of sentences can vary.
