Switch it up

Have you ever found yourself using the word ‘Very’ too much? We might often say or write ‘Very good’, Very nice’, ‘Very tired’, and so forth.

Want to switch it up? Well, stop scrolling. You have come to the right post!

A ‘synonym’ is a word or phrase that means nearly or exactly the same as another word or phrase in the same language. With that said, you may try to use these alternatives next time you really want to get your point across.

• Someone who is feeling very tired? → Exhausted

• Something is very clean? → Spotless

• Someone is very scared? → Petrified

• Someone is very funny? → Hysterical

• Someone is very beautiful? → Stunning

These synonyms will help you avoid repeating the same words or ‘very’ over and over again, and you’ll also boost your lexical knowledge!
