    πŸ” What is Word Choice? Word choice means picking the best words to use in your writing so that it's clear, interesting, and fun to read.
    πŸ’‘ Why is it Important? Good word choice makes your writing more descriptive and helps your reader understand exactly what you mean. It also makes your writing more engaging!
    πŸ“ How to Improve Word Choice:
  • Use strong verbs instead of weak ones (e.g., "run" instead of "walk quickly").
  • Use descriptive adjectives (e.g., "sparkling" instead of "good").
  • Avoid using the same words too many times – find synonyms (words that mean the same thing).
