Specific nouns and verbs are like the superstars of sentences! Instead of just saying "dog," a specific noun would be "Fido." Instead of just saying "ran," a specific verb could be "sprinted." Using specific words makes your sentences clearer and more interesting to read! They paint a more vivid picture in the reader's mind.
