36. How To Sound Smart In English? Upgrade Your Vocabulary With This #1 Method


Listen Later

As non-native speakers we sometimes tend to settle for a basic word instead of a more specific, accurate, or sophisticated word.

Yes, I get it. The reason why this happens is because we feel limited and bored with the words that are available to us. Of course, we know a lot more words in English, we just don’t seem to use them as often. Watch my previous video about vocabulary to see why: https://youtu.be/bd6iGLmUssQ

In this new episode I will help you understand how to integrate more words into your speaking and how to make your speech more varied and interesting (so instead of saying the same basic words, I’m offering a few different expressions to 8 VERY commonly used words).

To see a list of those words with example sentences go here: https://theaccentsway.com/how-to-sound-smart-in-english/

Do you use any other expressions instead of the ones I mentioned? Let me know in the comments on the episode’s page.
