Real, hella, and doubleplus also work
Don’t say
I’ll say whatever the fuck I want however I want to. If you don’t like it, you’re free to leave.
Very free
It’s not a guide, it’s a list.
What psychopath would say “that car looks swift!” vs “that car looks very fast”
Just say zoombastic like a normal person.
This is a very shitty (craptastic) advert

Very nice list
Who says “very frightened”? They just say “terrified”, which is surprisingly NOT what the infographic recommends! And “very perfect” is just nonsense. So is “very well-to-do”, which feels like they worked backwards instead of figuring out what “very wealthy” would be.
These guys need to proofread their own work, I guess.
This list is very silly.
Not just because the meanings are off for many of them and “very” is fun to use sometimes, but because you need multiple replacement options for the different contexts of common adjectives. It would’ve been more helpful to provide 4-5 options for 25-30 words.
But it’s not meant to be helpful, it’s not a YSK, it’s just an ad for some proofreading company.
don’t say “very accurate”; say “exact”
First line of this infographic is already deeply misleading. It’s the equivalent of:
don’t say “very good”; say “perfect”
It’s overly superlative compared to what it’s trying to replace. “Exact” is inherently “very accurate”, but “very accurate” is not inherently “exact”.
“Amiable” is not “very friendly” - complete nonsense.
0.01 mm off is very accurate.
0.0 mm off is exact.
But ChatGPT helped me write this graphic in only 30 minutes, and it’s exact.
Yeah, I retract my comment. The SVG cat with the Peter Griffin ballsack chin told me it’s fine.
Do you see this brief girl with the ashen face and the constricting pants that only covered tiny of her butt? That top had a profound cutout and looked slackon her. I’m apologetic you didn’t see her. She looked like she carried leaden handbag though.
Alternatively, instead of using the “very” prefix, you can use the “as fuck” suffix. Check it out: Noisy as fuck. Tasty as fuck. Important as fuck. If you really want to underline your point though, combine them. For example, when you want to express the gravity of the situation or something, say “This situation is very grave as fuck!”. See what I mean? Now that’s what I call very eloquent as fuck prose, shit that’ll suck the air out of the room for sure.
I’m very sick. - I am bedridden.
I’m sick as fuck. - I am amazing.
Instead of “it hurt very much” you can say “it hurt a fuckton.”
Very pretentious
Instead of very pretentious, try using chi-chi.
