6 Other Words Instead
Good day Guys 'n Dolls!
Here's to the middle of a great weekend wherever you find yourself! I hope it is in a place you choose to be.
I was at it again...reading and soaking up information...and I thought about my friends here at WA!
Do you sometimes have a 'word bleep' where you find yourself saying 'very' too often?
Well, I found a VERY extensive list with 'other words' we could use instead of adding a 'very' to them.
Here are 6 - instead of saying:
- very accurate say exact
- very slow say sluggish
- very important say crucial
- very difficult say arduous
- very cute say adorable
- very stupid say idiotic
And the list goes on.
While I was writing, I thought of a few as I am sure you could too. SO, the next time you feel very passionate about something, maybe you should be more fired up instead!
Namaste

I find myself doing this exact thing; either using the term "very" or "really" to emphasize a word. I've been working on using a better synonym, even when I'm just having a simple conversation so that using those terms would become second nature.
Hi Michelle!
I find thesaurus.com to be a useful reference when I am having trouble finding words to use so as not to be repetitive.
All the best to you in your endeavors!
Sincerely,
Tom
