Chapter 30 Tip 26 Personal Thesaurus

Have you ever heard someone speak too esoteric or a mouthful?From the smiles on their faces and the gleam in their eyes when they uttered that big word, you could tell they were very proud. (Worse, he may have misused, misused, and even mispronounced it. Ooh!) The whole world believes that the more words a person knows, the smarter and more creative he is.People with rich rhetoric are often easier to be hired, promoted faster, and others pay more attention to their words.So natural winners know how to use gorgeous, incisive words without sounding obtrusive.These words come out of their mouths gracefully and add credit to their words.The vocabulary is precise and appropriate; for they choose their words with care, like a tie or a shirt.The vocabulary chosen by master communicators not only matches their personalities, but also hits the point.

Let me tell you a piece of good news, the difference between a master of words and an average person is actually only 50 words.If you want to become a master of words, you don't have to stuff too many words in your head.As long as you use dozens of clever words more than others, everyone will impress you as smart and creative. It is very simple to build this kind of super font.There is no need to bury your head in the sea of ​​words, and you don't have to listen to teaching tapes with correct words.Your homework is to think of some clichéd words that you use every day, like nice, great, beautiful, smart, etc.Then grab a synonym dictionary from the bookshelf, look up the words you bother yourself to hear, and look up the alternatives.

For example, if you turn to the word "smart", you will see a long list of synonyms.These words are very vivid, for example, wise, ingenious, resourceful, adaptable... Go through each vocabulary and say it aloud.Which one is more in line with your personality?Which one makes you feel more suitable?Try each word, like trying on clothes to see how comfortable they are?Choose some words that you like more, and practice them several times until they can be used by you at will.
Take out a synonym dictionary, look through the words you use every day that are dying, and find new words that can be replaced.Then, like trying on new shoes, try out each new word to see which ones work best.If you think some of them are good, replace the clichés you often say.

Remember, as long as 50 words, you can change from a person with ordinary words to a master of words.Learning a new word a day can refresh you in two months.
