I’m JUST saying…
The word “JUST” gets misused often. Or not well used, is a better analogy, I believe.
The following uses of the word “JUST” are semi useless:
- I JUST wanted to see if you received my email …
OR
- I’m JUST following up to see if you are interested …
OR
- I’m JUST popping in to say hello …
OR
- JUST a note to say thank you for the lovely gift…
Omitting the word JUST in your statements will make your comments stronger and more meaningful.
Unless it’s used as an adjective:
- In a just world…
- They got their just reward…
Reread your emails, social postings and thank you notes. Eliminate the word JUST! You’ll sound much better.
JUST an idea for you. LOL BETTER: AN IDEA FOR YOU!!!
PS – Remember: JUST is a weak, wimpy word
