How to Choose the Right Alternative
- For texts, shorter is almost always better. Trim any alternative that takes more than one breath to say.
- Match the register to the reader: professional for work, casual for friends, flirty only where it is clearly welcome.
- Read the alternative out loud before sending. If it sounds like something you would actually say, it is ready.
- Do not stack two formal phrases back to back. One polished line plus plain language reads better.
