💖✨ NOUNS ARE YOUR BUSINESS SUPERPOWER ✨💖


You’re at work, deep in your to-do list, when your manager says: “Can you send me the thing from earlier?” And suddenly you’re in a mental maze… The deck? The client email? The updated timeline? 🤔


Vague nouns = confusion.

📊 According to a survey, 75 % of employees say workplace jargon or unclear wording hurts workplace communication. (Source: Sparrow Connected)


Translation? If our noun choices are confusing, our intentions can get misunderstood. Fast.


Here’s the Quick Fix: 


🧱 4 Ways to Use Nouns Like a Pro


1️⃣ Master collective nouns

✅ “The team is ready.”

(Team = one group, use singular.)


2️⃣  Be specific, not general

❌ “Let’s discuss that thing.”

✅ “Let’s discuss the client feedback from yesterday’s demo.”


3️⃣  Use abstract nouns to sound strategic

✅ “Success depends on alignment, timing, and collaboration.”


4️⃣ Know countable vs. uncountable

✅ “I received feedback.” (Not: feedbacks)

✅ “I emailed the data / information.” (Not: datas / informations)

✅ “I spoke with the people at Smith and Co.” (Not: persons)
