A word that I feel too many people use is “acceptable.” It’s a word that gets used often to describe something that meets the basic standard. But when we use “acceptable” too much, it can make things sound just okay, even when they might deserve more praise. Saying something is “acceptable” might not show how good it is. If we use this word too often, it can lose its meaning over time. Maybe it’s better to use other words that really show how we feel.
