Some Beautiful Words to Garnish Your Writing
Like a bright red cherry on top of an already mesmerizing cocktail, certain words pack a punch that can liven up your entire body of writing. They can act like a pair of really flashy shoes, pulling together a generic outfit and making it memorable.
But which words to use? The English language has by far the highest volume of words to choose from than any other language. Which means you’re fresh out of excuses when you’re trying to find the right one. Now, what qualifies as “beautiful?” Beauty is, after all, in the eye of the beholder. And, in this particular case, dear readers, we are the beholders. Agree or disagree at your own volition. The real beauty in these words lies in their infrequency of use. It’s just refreshing to see rare words make an appearance in your everyday vocabulary so as to break the sameness of regularity.
