+## Usage of pagination type
+
+You can use either `limit`/`offset` or `take`/`skip` to return paginated results.
+
+### Example
+
+#### Code
+
+```typescript
+const config: PaginateConfig<CatEntity> = {
+  paginationType: PaginationType.LIMIT_AND_OFFSET,
+  // Or
+  paginationType: PaginationType.TAKE_AND_SKIP,
+}
+
+const result = await paginate<CatEntity>(query, catRepo, config)
+```
+
+> However, using `limit`/`offset` can return unexpected results.   
+> For more information
+> see [#477](https://github.com/ppetzold/nestjs-paginate/issues/477), [#4742](https://github.com/typeorm/typeorm/issues/4742)
+> and [#5670](https://github.com/typeorm/typeorm/issues/5670).
