Write concisely by substituting "very" + "adjective" with a more concise adjective that has the spirit of very contained within it.

In the words of Borat Sagdiyev, "Very nice!" Once you get a substantial database, you should introduce a Chrome extension that flags weak "very" word pairs and suggests the more concise adjective.

@jordankingxyz I was thinking the same thing. This would be an amazing browser extension.

?makers very cool product. I've already come to this thrice. But didn't get the results. :( Possible for you to also add a request form where we can share the phrase and you update the DB and notify us?

Connor, what a great idea? Stephen King famously said "The road to hell is paved with adverbs." IMO, "very" is the worst offender.

Hi 👋 This is my first time launching on Product hunt and I wanted to start off with a simple tool that I've wanted to see made far a while now. It ain't much but I've got to start somewhere. All you need to do is write a simple adjective, press the "Get Result" button and just like that you'll be writing without the lazy "very" dragging you down. At the moment there are only about 150 words added in my database. If you want to see an adjective added (or make any suggestion at all) please press the "Update Database" button to improve the experience for everyone! Please let me know what you think! PS: Each word has at least 2 results, so make sure you press the refresh button if you want to see more options.
