Show Some Emotion in Your Vocabulary
Good is such a bland word. It doesn't describe or hint at any feelings. It is spectacular to use some emotions, color, and feelings in your everyday jargon. Go ahead, I won't laugh. Now, don't get me wrong, good has its place in our vocabulary. But do we have to use it a million times in a single day? No, why not try to use one of the words listed below to replace that constant good.50 Alternative Words to Replace Good

Thank you for this article! I know good has a place in our vocabulary but in our home we're trying to pretend it's "not" a word because it's used WAY too much! Thanks for the alternatives, I'm printing this out for my kids & ME!
ReplyDeleteGurvy Green, you're welcome! Good is used so much that I think that its lost all meaning in my book. I hope these help. My favorite replacement is rad. :)
