How to Choose the Right Alternative

  1. Read the alternative out loud before sending. If it sounds like something you would actually say, it is ready.
  2. Save two or three favorites instead of memorizing the whole list. Rotating a few keeps your wording fresh.
  3. For texts, shorter is almost always better. Trim any alternative that takes more than one breath to say.
  4. In emails, pair a formal opening alternative with a warm closing one to sound polished but human.
  5. Do not stack two formal phrases back to back. One polished line plus plain language reads better.
