Repetition of words in a text or conversation makes it dull and boring. Using unique words makes it eye-catching and imparts a good impression on the reader or the listener. To avoid repetition of the word “very”, we have compiled a list of words that can be used instead of using “very”.
Let’s say,
1. Sohira is my friend and she is a very beautiful, very nice, very cute, very caring and very well-to-do person.
2. Sohira is my friend and she is pretty, kind, adorable, helpful and a wealthy person.
The second sentence looks catchy and well written as compared to the first one.
A comprehensive list of words is here which will play a great role in increasing your vocabulary and your comprehension skills.
