How to Choose the Right Alternative

  1. Avoid sarcastic or funny alternatives in serious conversations. Tone misfires are hard to unsend.
  2. For texts, shorter is almost always better. Trim any alternative that takes more than one breath to say.
  3. Do not stack two formal phrases back to back. One polished line plus plain language reads better.
  4. Read the alternative out loud before sending. If it sounds like something you would actually say, it is ready.
  5. Adjust one word to make it yours: swap a name, a detail, or a reference only the two of you share.
