Revise the words below:
It's means it is. Not its, the
possessive pronoun of it, in company with his, hers, ours, and theirs.
Between you and I instead of between
you and me.
Irregardless. No such word. A combination
of irrespective and regardless.
Intriguing. "This poem is
intriguing." With whom? With what? What do you mean? Try puzzling,
enigmatic, ambiguous, etc... followed by "because...."
Using highlight, signpost, and transition
as verbs.
Do not use these words in
the stated meanings:
The verbs impact, finalize, interface,
and share (used to mean talk or discuss).
Input. Opposite: outgo. Ugh.
Lifestyle, unless you're talking about
somebody from Hollywood. It won't do at all, for example, to talk about
Plato's exciting lifestyle.
Empowerment. A feel-good word. What do you
mean? Power? Entitlement? Money? Love? Corporate success? Spiritual
reward? When you use this word, ask yourself, "Empowerment for
what?"
Etc. at the end of a sentence.
