Ever notice how heavily native speakers of English depend on certain words for emphasis? We add tons, and reallys, and verys, and multiple exclamation points and such. The English language is so rich with words that never get used. I know it lacks in some ways, but there are ways in which it doesn't, and people don't seem to take due advantage of them. A thesaurus is a must, my friends; a thesaurus and better education in language arts. And never underestimate the power of the made-up word. It's amazing how easily some of them can be understood by others.
