How to Choose the Right Alternative

  1. Match the register to the reader: professional for work, casual for friends, flirty only where it is clearly welcome.
  2. In emails, pair a formal opening alternative with a warm closing one to sound polished but human.
  3. Read the alternative out loud before sending. If it sounds like something you would actually say, it is ready.
  4. For texts, shorter is almost always better. Trim any alternative that takes more than one breath to say.
  5. Save two or three favorites instead of memorizing the whole list. Rotating a few keeps your wording fresh.
