Words get more precise as they get more exotic, and that is not always what you want. I saw it too much in college--students whipping a thesaurus to make their papers seem 'smarter' but in reality making them incoherent. I agree, "very" is ok, but it is a crutch. In many of these cases, just dropping the 'very' would be better than picking a new word. |
