Learn 20 verbs you can use to be more concise in English. "Concise" means that what you say or write is short and clear. You remove all of the unnecessary words and details.

I know many students want to speak faster in English. Increasing your speed comes with time and lots of practice. But, it's not always about speed. Using concise language can help you express yourself in a clear way.

After every four verbs, I give you a mini gapfill to help you review what you learned. Can you please let me know your score in the comments? Did you get 20/20? Or maybe 10/20?
