Do you ever wonder why a grammatically correct sentence you’ve written just lies there like a dead fish?
I sure have.
But still the sentence doesn’t work.
Even Mark Twain was quoted, regarding adjectives: “When in doubt, strike it out.”
That’s not to say there’s no place for adjectives. I used three in the title and first paragraph of this post alone.
There’s no quicker win for you and your manuscript than ferreting out and eliminating flabby verbs and replacing them with vibrant ones.
How To Know Which Verbs Need Replacing
Your first hint is your own discomfort with a sentence. Odds are it features a snooze-inducing verb.
As you hone your ferocious self-editing skills, train yourself to exploit opportunities to replace a weak verb for a strong one.
At the end of this post I suggest a list of 249 vivid verbs you can experiment with to replace tired ones.
What constitutes a tired verb? Here’s what to look for:
3 Types of Verbs to Beware of in Your Prose
1. State-of-being verbs
What constitutes a tired verb? Here’s what to look for:
These are passive as opposed to powerful:
Is
Am
Are
Was
Were
Be
Being
Been
Have
Has
Had
Do
Does
Did
Shall
Will
Should
Would
May
Might
Must
Can
Could
Am I saying these should never appear in your writing? Of course not. You’ll find them in this piece. But when a sentence lies limp, you can bet it contains at least one of these. Determining when a state-of-being verb is the culprit creates a problem—and finding a better, more powerful verb to replace it—is what makes us writers. [Note how I replaced the state-of-being verbs in this paragraph.]
Resist the urge to consult a thesaurus for the most exotic verb you can find. I consult such references only for the normal word that carries power but refuses to come to mind.
I would suggest even that you consult my list of powerful verbs only after you have exhausted all efforts to come up with one on your own. You want Make your prose to be your own creation, not yours plus Roget or Webster or Jenkins. [See how easy they are to spot and fix?]
Examples
Impotent: The man was walking on the platform.
Powerful: The man strode along the platform.
Impotent: Jim is a lover of country living.
Powerful: Jim treasures country living.
Impotent: There are three things that make me feel the way I do…
Powerful: Three things convince me…
Powerful verbs are strong enough to stand alone.
Examples
The fox ran quickly dashed through the forest.
She menacingly looked glared at her rival.
He secretly listened eavesdropped while they discussed their plans.
3. Verbs with -ing suffixes
Examples
Before: He was walking…
After: He walked…
Before: She was loving the idea of…
After: She loved the idea of…
Before: The family was starting to gather…
After: The family started to gather…

351 Strong Verbs To Make Your Writing Pop, Fizz And Sparkle
Why do the words jump off this page?
Why does this writing feel energetic and strong?
Why is it so fast-paced?
And do you wonder why your draft text seems a tad limp in comparison?
It happens to all of us.
First drafts often require an injection of power and pizzazz. First drafts are full of weak verbs, and weak verbs make your writing limp, flabby, and listless.
In contrast, strong verbs add action, vitality, color, and zest. So, the “secret” to writing with gusto is to choose stronger verbs.
What are strong verbs?
Strong verbs engage your senses, and help readers picture a scene (verbs in bold):
You feel the air reverberating when he slams his fist on the table. The teacups jiggle, his face reddens, and his voice thunders.
Strong verbs allow readers to visualize actions. Instead of only reading words, they’re drawn into your writing, experiencing your story.
But strong verbs don’t need to convey powerful action. Subtle action can evoke powerful feelings, too. For instance:
He cradles the baby, strokes her dark hair, tickles her chin, and hums a lullaby.
Strong verbs are precise and concrete. In contrast, weak verbs are abstract and generic-they don’t help you visualize a scene. Examples of weak verbs are “to be,” “to provide,” “to add,” and “to utilize.” You can’t picture these words.
You can’t picture “provide feedback,” but you can visualize “shouting,” “lecturing,” and “scribbling.”
Strong verbs breathe life into abstract ideas
Over the weekend, I read Ray Bradbury’s “Zen in the Art of Writing.” I enjoyed his word choice, and I loved how his verbs breathe life into abstract concepts, like storytelling and the Muse.
For instance, he describes how he started writing stories based on lists of nouns:
And the stories began to burst, to explode from those memories, hidden in the nouns, lost in the lists.
And he writes about the Muse:
The Muse, then, is the most terrified of all the virgins. She starts if she hears a sound, pales if you ask her questions, spins and vanishes if you disturb her dress.
And on eating books:
I tore out the pages, ate them with salt, doused them with relish, gnawed on the bindings, turned the chapters with my tongue!
Strong verbs in business writing
You might think strong verbs are only for fiction writers.
But that’s untrue.
Here’s Nancy Duarte in her book ” Resonate ” (about engaging your audience with story-based presentations):
Throughout history, presenter-to-audience exchanges have rallied revolutions, spread innovation, and spawned movements.
And:
When a great story is told, we lean forward, and our hearts race as the story unfolds.
And:
Haven’t you often wished you could make customers, employees, investors, or students snap, crackle, pop, and move to the new place they need to be in order to create a new future?
Here’s an example of Apple’s copy:
So whether you’re listening to music, watching videos, or making speakerphone calls, iPhone 7 lets you crank it up. Way, way up.
And:
Apple Watch Series 2 counts more than just steps. It tracks all the ways you move throughout the day, whether you’re walking between meetings, doing cartwheels with your kids, or hitting the gym.
“To do” in the last sentence is, of course, a weak verb. Apple’s copywriters could have changed “doing cartwheels with your kids” into “cartwheeling with your kids” without disrupting the rhythm and making the sentence stronger.
It is nouns and verbs, not their assistants, that give good writing its toughness and color.
~ Strunk and White (in the Elements of Style)
How to choose strong verbs
No clear distinction exists between strong and weak verbs. It’s a gliding scale, and it’s up to you as a writer to decide how strong you’d like your verbs to be.
For instance, “to walk” is stronger than “to go” because it gives you an indication of how someone moved. But stronger options would be: to saunter, to hike, to shuffle, to trudge, to stride, or to plod. Each of these verbs gives you an indication of how someone walked:
to saunter: picture a girl walking rather leisurely, perhaps peeking into the shop windows
to hike: picture a woman in walking boots with a backpack, walking at a good pace
to shuffle: picture an elderly woman moving ahead gingerly, hardly lifting her feet
to trudge: picture a girl in wellies making a big effort, perhaps walking through the snow or mud
to stride: picture a lady walking as if on the catwalk, with long strides
to plod: picture a tired woman with sagging shoulders, walking rather tiredly
Strong verbs can also be used for abstract language. For instance, you could say you generated ideas during your brainstorm session. But how did your ideas arrive? For instance:
A few ideas popped into your mind
Your mind exploded with ideas
A stream of ideas burst forward
Ideas first trickled, then gushed forth
The brainstorm session spawned a stream of ideas
Strong verbs are more precise than weak verbs; they can paint clear pictures-even of abstract activities like thinking and generating ideas.
How to play with your verbs
While quietly sitting at her wooden desk, she slowly formulated her thoughts and worked really hard to write her blog post. The next day she felt apprehensive and nervously hit publish. Would her audience be interested enough to read her content word-by-word?
To add energy to the text, the first step is to strip the content back to its bare bones:
While quietly sitting at her wooden desk, she slowly formulated her thoughts and worked really hard to write her blog post. The next day she felt apprehensive and nervously hit publish. Would her audience be interested enough to read her content word-by-word?
The stripped down version lacks nuance and color. So, let’s try stronger verbs and add a little context:
For hours, she sat at her desk. She wracked her brain, and slaved over her words to produce a blog post. And the next day? She hit publish with trepidation. Would her audience gobble up her words?
The thesaurus is your friend. Use a thesaurus to find more precise alternatives for weak verbs.
Your word choice shapes your voice
Finding your voice is about experimentation.
Write a first draft quickly using the words coming up into your mind.
Then, review your draft. In which sentences can you replace weak with strong verbs?
Which verbs can be more precise? Which verbs are sensory? Which verbs have a strong emotional connotation?
Play with your words. Have fun. And discover your voice.
A list of 351 strong verbs to inspire your writing
The list below is not exhaustive as many more strong verbs exist.
You can use a thesaurus to find other strong verbs, or keep an eye out for interesting verbs while reading.
To determine whether a verb is strong, ask yourself whether the verb has a sensory connotation. Does it make you hear, feel, smell, taste or see something? Does it paint a clear picture?
Onomatopoeic verbs
Onomatopoeic words express a sound, so they’re a sub segment of sensory verbs.
The word onomatopoeia comes from the Greek for making words-the sound has formed the word that represents it.
Sensory verbs
Sensory verbs are strong because they paint clear pictures in readers’ minds and make them feel something.
Examples: To sparkle, to shine, to brighten, to wipe out, to muddle, to dazzle, to spark, to glow, to shimmer, to glimmer, to beam, to ripple, to tickle, to thrill, to explode, to burst, to guzzle, to gobble up, to breeze through, to drool, to spit, to roar, to thunder, to reverberate, to resonate, to rumble, to flavor, to smooth, to rub, to tremble, to whisper, to vibrate, to pulsate, to throb, to quiver, to buzz, to sip, to slurp, to slobber, to blemish, to applaud, to clash, to bounce, to blend, to shake, to savor, to tantalize, to tittilate, to pinch, to stroke, to brush, to bathe, to hose, to douse, to shower, to drench, to spray, to sprinkle, to trickle, to splash, to seep, to slide, to slump, to tumble, to nose-dive, to fly, to float, to clog, to swoop, to propel, to dig in, to dip, to surge, to wolf down, to shovel, to gulp down, to roll, to soar, to curl up, to unfold, to weave, to swipe, to tear, to polish, to pale, to vanish, to spin, to weave, to intertwine, to buckle down, to button up, to pierce, to stick to
Strong action verbs-intransitive
Action verbs propel a sentence forward, keeping readers engaged.
Instead of using weaker words like walk or move, try to describe the movement more precisely so readers can imagine the movement.
Intransitive verbs can stand on their own, without an object. For instance, I walk is intransitive because there’s no object that is walked by me. I hit you is transitive-you are the object as you are hit by me.
Examples: To stumble, to wobble, to swing, to lurch, to glide, to zip, to sail, to crash, to dive, to tiptoe, to pussyfoot, to duck, to flip-flop, to dilly-dally, to linger, to stall, to sway, to sink, to spurt, to hurry, to dash, to nip, to race, to whiz, to flit, to chew, to stroll, to sashay, to amble, to plod, to ramble, to loiter, to meander, to roam, to snake, to gallivant, to twist, to dance, to jig, to jive, to waltz, to tango, to swirl, to hop, to trip, to skip, to whirl, to gallop, to stride, to zoom, to trot, to dart, to sprint, to shoot, to leap
Strong action verbs-transitive
Below follow examples of words related to holding, pushing, or hitting something.
You can use these verbs for both concrete and abstract concepts. For instance, you can jump-start an engine or you can jump-start your career. You can squeeze a stress ball, or you can squeeze more to-do’s into your calendar. A cow regurgitates grass, and a blogger may regurgitate worn-out topics.
Negative emotional verbs
A verb like to fail has a strong negative connotation but doesn’t necessarily paint an unambiguous or vivid picture in a reader’s mind. Failure comes in different forms-you can marginally fail an exam or your start-up can fail utterly, and the feelings associated can vary. Do you sob for days? Do you fret you’re a failure? Do you feel crippled or bruised by the failure? Do you feel devastated or shrug your shoulders?
Below follow examples of more sensory verbs with negative connotations:
Examples: To choke, to strangle, to smother, to gag, to suffocate, to throttle, to cry, to howl, to sob, to blubber, to scream, to groan, to moan, to fret, to fume, to bleed, to nag, to steal, to kidnap, to ransack, to loot, to pilfer, to plunder, to snitch, to puke, to vomit, to yelp, to bark, to growl, to grumble, to mutter, to spout, to suck, to scold, to plummet, to collapse, to skid, to agitate, to slave, to labor, to wreck, to ruin, to cripple, to devastate, to decimate, to trash, to shatter, to torpedo, to sabotage, to capsize, to maul, to crush, to slash, to bruise, to hijack
Positive emotional verbs
The verbs below paint strong positive imagery in your reader’s mind.
Your apple tree can blossom, and your blog can flourish. A magician might be spellbinding, but your blog posts can hypnotize readers, too.
Examples: To flourish, to thrive, to bloom, to blossom, to mushroom, to smile, to grin, to cheer, to raise, to boost, to lift, to bolster, to invigorate, to energize, to excite, to enliven, to fortify, to hearten, to embolden, to animate, to arouse, to hypnotize, to spellbind, to sweep off one’s feet, to fall in love, to treasure, to unclog, to clarify, to disentangle, to liberate, to relieve, to release, to unshackle, to cuddle, to nestle, to huddle, to snuggle, to embrace, to hug, to kiss, to massage, to cradle, to enfold, to envelop, to sprout

Action Verbs For Job Descriptions
Action verbs are the most effective verbs to use in job descriptions.
What is an action verb? It’s a verb that expresses physical or mental action.
Examples of action verbs:
The CEO motivates his team.
The developer writes code.
The accountant approves the balance sheet
An action verb is distinct from linking verbs (am, are, is, was, were, etc.).) and helping verbs (can, shall, will could,would, should, etc.).
It’s almost always a good idea to use action verbs for job descriptions instead of helping/linking verbs.
Below is a list of 169 action verbs for job descriptions (with their definitions). I’ve found these 169 to be the most useful in writing job descriptions here at Ongig. I’ve categorized them best I can though there’s a lot of overlap.
