Why not use strong verbs instead of weak ones in your writing? Weak words can make your writing look wordy and rather dull.
This is what I recommend …
Instead of … write …
conduct an analysis analyse
give an answer to answer
hold a meeting meet
provide a solution solve
send an invitation to invite

Here’s another historical film which I can highly recommend. ‘The Other Boleyn Girl’ is loosely based on the life of Mary Boleyn, mistress of Henry VIII of England. It might not be historically accurate, but I thoroughly enjoyed watching it!
Take a quick look at the trailer to see whether you would like to watch the whole film.
I wish we had watched films like this one in our history lessons years ago. I might have been more interested in the subject! Do you agree with me?
I hope your company doesn’t have terrible rules like this one! 😉
Vocabulary.com says that it’s the “quickest, most intelligent way to improve your vocabulary”. I can’t say if that’s true, but I do think it’s a nice tool which can help you learn useful words. Go on, give it a try and tell me what you think about it!
A man usually keeps his money in a wallet, while a woman has her money in a purse. Well, at least in Britain! To complicate matters a little, what I call a ‘handbag’ is a ‘purse’ in American English!
Not always easy, is it? 😉
