I am in the process of getting my master thesis down to paper. Reading through the text, i noticed that i often start sentences with "in order to .. " Could you please give me some alternatives to this like 'therefore', 'so', etc.
Anonymous"in order to .. " Could you please give me some alternatives to this
English learners frequently use 'in order to' when a simple 'to' will do just fine. You should probably omit 'in order' in at least half of these occurrences of 'in order to'.
"so as to"
But , "in order to" is the most common expression

What is your opinion about 'with the purpose of doing sth'?
I just opened OALD at 'in order to do sth'
The definition is: One example: My try:
She arrived early with the purpose/intention of getting a good seat.
