I don’t like the word “get” and it’s past tense “got.”
It seems like a lazy verb to use. Think about it really. Today, I purchased a few tops for my friend. I went to relay this message and stated that I got her a few tops. There are so many better verbs to describe the transaction: purchased, bought, acquired, just to name a few.
I’ve got to try to stop using that word so much. (get it…heh…I just used it 2X in my declaration to try and stop using it! I am funny).
Now that statement revised:
I really would like to try and utilize better verbs to express myself. See, doesn’t that sound a little more clear and educated?
