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. In emails, pair a formal opening alternative with a warm closing one to sound polished but human.
  3. Match the register to the reader: professional for work, casual for friends, flirty only where it is clearly welcome.
  4. Adjust one word to make it yours: swap a name, a detail, or a reference only the two of you share.
  5. Avoid sarcastic or funny alternatives in serious conversations. Tone misfires are hard to unsend.
