“Do I say ‘VERY’ too often?” A client asked me this a few weeks ago—and he wasn't the first. :) What can you do about it? Instead of saying “very creative,” try “innovative.” Using fewer “very” phrases can make your business English sharper. Replace them with single, vivid words. These examples will show you how: 📌 very creative ----->> innovative 📌 very detailed ----->> meticulous 📌 very good ----->> exceptional 📌 very important ----->> crucial 📌 very often ----->> frequently - - ✄ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Be authentic, impactful, and totally you. In English, too. #businessenglish #englishfluencycoaching #englishcommunication #juditmurakozy

A few weeks ago, I was coaching a client who had mastered formal Business English—polished emails, perfect presentations, the works. But when it came time to speak up in meetings or have a casual conversation with clients, they were completely thrown off. It made me realize: while mastering formal language is important, it’s not enough. In today’s world, people want to connect with the person behind the business, not just the company. We do business with people we trust, and that trust is built through authentic, relatable communication—something that formal Business English alone can’t always deliver. What’s your strategy for balancing fluency and spontaneity in real-world communication? I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments! #BusinessEnglish #CommunicationSkills #AuthenticConnections #LanguageLearning #BusinessRelationships
