Legit criticism! But hear me out. Who remembers all those different words anyway?

Instead of NOT using "very", I say we ONLY use "very".

It's a very idea!

[–] hakunawazo@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

That's so aladeen of you

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 2 points 5 hours ago

The veryist of ideas. Bigley very

[–] rompe@lemmy.wtf 2 points 5 hours ago

A very idea from a very mind! You're very.

[–] wpb@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

No, I like that language is composable. I think it's very convenient. It also allows me to say stuff in a way that's easier to grasp for folks who might not understand English that well. Very dumb suggestion.

[–] Paper_Phrog@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Reads comment. Looks up list. Ah, he means it's a foolish suggestion. Splendid.

[–] baines@lemmy.cafe 3 points 6 hours ago

idle does equate to very lazy

this was shit when it was on reddit

[–] CoryCoolguy@lemmy.myserv.one 1 points 5 hours ago

I prefer "double plus"

[–] sol6_vi@lemmy.makearmy.io 9 points 9 hours ago

Use all the words in the right columns but preceded with "fuckin'" every time. Like a real gentleperson.

[–] assertnull@programming.dev 5 points 10 hours ago

This is extra plus good

[–] Tartas1995@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

Very lazy = idle?

No? Or is my english bad?

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Kinda, kinda not. To me, idle means "not doing anything at the moment", e.g. "standing idly by", which is definitely different than "very lazy".

[–] Tartas1995@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 5 hours ago

Yeah. Same.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 1 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

It's an older use, to the point that I've never heard it used. Merriam marks that definition as "old-fashioned" (which is a bit odd, because I thought they only used the archaic or obsolete terms).

The lazy sense is probably what's meant from the old bible quote about "idle hands" related to the devil.

[–] Tartas1995@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 11 hours ago

Fair enough while I have opinions.

But it makes me wonder if OP actually used idle for very lazy or if they never actually read their own post.

Strength and power are different measurements though

[–] kunaltyagi@programming.dev 3 points 10 hours ago

Can I interest you in strongful?

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)
[–] foliumcreations@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago

Veraiously?

[–] Asfalttikyntaja@sopuli.xyz 2 points 12 hours ago

This is UUUGE!

[–] ohlaph@lemmy.world 5 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Apparently, my stomach is vacant.

[–] kunaltyagi@programming.dev 1 points 10 hours ago

My stomach and mind both

[–] Zacryon@feddit.org 15 points 22 hours ago (4 children)

You can put 'very' before every suggested alternative. What then?

[–] Sheldan@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

Some of them feel better than others. Very boiling is kinda weird.

Very powerful works imo.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 3 points 11 hours ago

I teach foreign language students and they often write about how their food was "very delicious", and it always sounds so jarring to me. There are a lot of really strong words that native speakers tend to not use very with.

eg:
very difficult task / very monumental task
very good cooking / very superb cooking
very happy man / very elated man

For some reason intensifiers like so and such don't have those restrictions:

The task was very/so monumental.
It was very/such superb cooking.
He was very/so elated.

[–] kunaltyagi@programming.dev 1 points 10 hours ago

Most of the alternatives feel odd with a very. Eg: very powerful, sure I get your message but it sounds awkward

[–] ohlaph@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago

When very then?
