Undgå disse 17 ord, der kan gøre dig lyd uuddannede...
Den måde, du taler kan gøre eller bryde din karriere eller dit dating liv. Det er derfor du skal være forsigtig med de ord, du vælger at bruge. Hvis du vælger de forkerte dem, kan du ende op lyder latterligt. Du ønsker ikke, at det sker, hvorfor du bør undgå at bruge disse ord, der kan gøre dig lyd uuddannede:
This isn't an actual word, which is why you should delete it from your vocabulary. The word you're looking for is simply "regardless."
2 Like
You don't want to throw "like" into every other sentence. It's a commonly used filler word that stops you from creating awkward pauses, but you have to learn to get comfortable speaking without it.
3 Literally
Most of the time, people use this word incorrectly. If you say that you literally died, you're lying. Literally means that something actually happened.
4 At
Det er okay at bruge dette ord i en sætning, men du ønsker ikke at bruge det i slutningen af en sætning. Det er forkert grammatik.
5 (cursing)
There's nothing wrong with tossing a few curse words into conversations with friends. However, if you're at work, you don't want to use foul language, because some people will accuse you of sounding uneducated.
6 Umm
This is another filler word that most people fall back on. However, you need to stop using it. It's okay to pause while you think of your next thought.
7 Ironic
Most people think they're using this word correctly, but they aren't. It actually means "happening in the opposite way to what is expected, and typically causing wry amusement because of this."
8 Very
Don't say that you're "very happy." Say that you're elated. Don't say that you're "very sad." Say that you're devastated.
9 Ain’t
This is slang. You shouldn't be using it when you want to sound intelligent.
10 Conversate
This isn't actually a word. You're either looking for "conversation" or "converse."
11 Nauseous
If you're feeling sick, the word you're looking for is "nauseated." Nauseous means that something is causing nausea.
12 Ginormous
This isn't a real word. If you want to state that something is huge, use "humongous" instead.
13 Gay
There are certain words you don't have any reason to use. "Gay" and "retarded" shouldn't be considered insults.
14 Inflammable
Since "flammable" means something can easily be set on fire, you might think that "inflammable" means the opposite. However, that's not the case. "Inflammable" also means it can easily be set on fire, so be careful when you use the word.
15 Misunderestimate
Even though one of our presidents used this word, it doesn't mean it makes any sense. You're probably trying to say "underestimate." You don't need the "mis" in front of it.
16 Omg
You don't want to use "omg" or "wtf" in an email. You don't want to say the letters aloud, either.
17 Supposably
You're probably trying to say the word "supposedly." Swap out that "b" for a "d."
The way you speak can change the way others view you, which is why you need to be careful. What other words do you try to refrain from using?
