Another Facebook quiz. Can you summarize your answers in one word that delivers any meaning to the person reading them? It’s actually not just a time-waster—it can get you thinking about more specific, more vivid words to use instead of the string of qualifiers we’d fall back on when we don’t have to take the time to revise. Break yourself out of your vocabulary rut, or rethink descriptions—are you labeling how the object looks or sounds? What it’s used for?
