AEE 2413: How to Be Concise Part 2: Choose Your Words

In this episode of the All Ears English podcast, Aubrey and Lindsay continue their three-part series on conciseness, focusing on vocabulary. They discuss strategies for eliminating filler words by slowing down speech and recording oneself, avoiding redundancy by shortening phrases and not repeating information, removing unnecessary qualifiers by using stronger adjectives, and using stronger verbs by replacing "be" verbs. They emphasize the importance of practice and provide examples of how to implement these strategies in everyday conversations, including a role play set at a school board meeting. The episode encourages listeners to consume diverse content to expand their vocabulary and enhance their communication skills.
