Words That Make You Sound Precise
From 'that thing was really good' to saying exactly what you mean: specific nouns, strong verbs, honest intensity and word economy.
£2.99
What's inside
- What do you actually mean, and the vague word alarm
- Naming things properly and choosing the exact verb
- Strong verb, fewer words, and what 'got' really hides
- Too strong, too weak, and the intensity scale
- Accurate or dramatic, and always, never, everyone
- Replacing 'a lot', and when numbers help or do not
- Removing padding, saying it in half the words, the 15 word challenge
- Precise is not rude: useful criticism and precise compliments
- Word choice changes character and tone, and neutral language
- Facts before judgement, describing behaviour, precise requests
- Directions, time language, comparison and using evidence
- Definitely, probably or possibly, plus advert and headline detective work
