Thesaurus: Word Roulette
Summary:
Beautiful literary styles often thrive on the repeated use of words and phrases, creating poetic and elegant language. However, this article suggests reducing repetition unless your style specifically requires it.Article:
While repetition can enhance certain literary styles, it can often detract from the clarity and flow of most writing. If your style doesn’t call for repetition, consider reviewing your text to identify any overused words or phrases.Example:
Less Effective:
"The purpose of this exercise is to find the purpose of the repeated use of a word and then purpose not to use that word so much."
More Effective:
"The purpose of this exercise is to discover the objective of the repeated use of a word, after which you resolve not to use that word continually."
Both examples convey the same message, but the second sentence uses varied, related words to achieve a smoother flow.
Many writers draft their initial ideas in a coherent manner, only to notice repetitive phrases upon reviewing their first draft. To address this, a thesaurus can be a valuable tool, helping to express ideas more uniquely.
Consider this transformation:
Original:
"Taking part in the school play was hard for Tammy because she was so shy and awkward."
Enhanced:
"Participating in the theatrical production at school was challenging for Tammy since she was so reserved and self-conscious."
Most word processors include a thesaurus function that offers alternative words to replace overused or unsuitable ones. For those who prefer writing by hand, investing in a physical thesaurus may enhance creativity and expression.
A thesaurus can offer multiple meanings and contexts, allowing greater flexibility in word choice. So, the next time you find an overused word in your writing, consult a thesaurus and explore new possibilities.
