To the Nth Power

Written by Gail DeBole On 10/27/2021 Updated on 10/28/2021 Don’t repeat. Make it short and sweet. Really and Very Are words that don’t carry A crucial amount of weight To a descriptive word’s state. If you must abuse The word that you choose. Then at least speak the power So listeners do not sour. Say “Very” to the third Even though it’s quite absurd. At least you’re being clever If listeners respond, “Whatever.”

The world would be a better place if everyone woke up to someone speaking French to them . . . .

Ah, but speaking French requires pursing the lips so they are poised to be kissed . . . . .

Probably so. The English language is complicated with many exceptions. Thanks for stopping by!
