Among them, the genre of the article: narrative, expository and argumentative.

Literary genre: poetry, novel, drama, prose.

The classification of article genre is different from that of literature genre. The genre of the article is divided according to the expression, and the literary genre is divided according to the connotation of the article and the overall structure of the thought.

The two are not divided in one dimension. The genre of the article mainly refers to the angle of literary creation. It divides several basic expression tendencies of "writing articles", which helps learners to distinguish them. For example, when we were young, our teacher told us that we were writing a narrative, and we would not be prompted to write a narrative. In fact, narrative prose can be regarded as a kind of narrative, because they are not divided in one dimension, and the genre of the article is only based on.

They are often staggered, because the dimensions are different, and an article can be divided into several categories according to which dimension.

For example, an article is a novel, but if it is divided according to the genre of the article, it is also a typical narrative, so it is only different in dimensions and its essence has not changed.

In addition, the so-called article genre is often mentioned in teaching, because it is easy for students to understand writing teaching according to the writing method. Therefore, when we were in primary school, teachers generally did not mention literary genres for fear of confusion.

In junior high school, because abstract thinking began to develop, the ability to understand concepts also improved, and then began to talk about style.

In reality, the genre of the article does not use this classification, which is often divided for students.
