Tuesday Tip |
When writing, choose the best (most concise) adjectives to describe the nouns and pronouns in your story. If you find yourself using very and really, odds are you're using a weak adjective. For instance:
- Gigantic is stronger than really big
- Horrible is stronger than very bad
- Tiny is stronger than very small
Even if you're not using words such as very and really before your adjectives, you may still be using weaker choices. Such as:
- Exhausted is stronger than tired
- Ecstatic is stronger than happy
- Petrified is stronger than scared
Thank you for the information. :-)
