How to Choose the Right Alternative

  1. Do not stack two formal phrases back to back. One polished line plus plain language reads better.
  2. In emails, pair a formal opening alternative with a warm closing one to sound polished but human.
  3. Adjust one word to make it yours: swap a name, a detail, or a reference only the two of you share.
  4. Save two or three favorites instead of memorizing the whole list. Rotating a few keeps your wording fresh.
  5. For texts, shorter is almost always better. Trim any alternative that takes more than one breath to say.
