We give flowers, chocolates, and paper goods as a means to show our affection to our significant other. Poetry, love sonnets, and long eloquent soliloquies are not out of place on the day of love.

Great idea! A lot of words are overused. The thesaurus is my best friend when I write :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Lauren! As a writer there are so many words that just seem bland after I've seen/used/read them a million times! Its time to spice things up a bit. Thanks for stopping by!

This is a great post! Thank you for all the great suggestions.
ReplyDeleteI am a fan of synonyms as a writer we like to use different words all of the time but in speech we are quite repetitive. I will pin and tweet this post!

Thanks for sharing this LeAura! I agree I'm way more verbose while writing than I am when I speak to others in person.

What a fun post for Valentine's Day! It's interesting how the different words all bring a different thought or feeling to mind even though they essentially mean the same thing.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Kimberly! Yes, I agree. The English language is a weird, funny thing at times!

I love this! I am going to print out the main one with all the words and put it up in my office as inspiration. It is so easy to take simple words for granted, thank you for reminding me to think!
ReplyDeleteLaura, I'm glad that this post could help you! Everytime I write I think to myself, "Is there any word that is more unique that I can use." It takes time but you'll get into the habit! Thanks for stopping by!

I just love all those words! Some really are better than beautiful, you know?! :) #SITSBlogging
ReplyDeleteKim, I agree with you! Beautiful has been completely overused especially since we're so close to Valentine Day.
