The average English speaker knows about 20,000 words; no matter how chatty you are, it’s impossible to overuse words for lack of knowledge. You could go for years without mentioning some of the words you know.

Over time, certain words in the English language become overused, leading to a loss of impact and meaning. For example, words like “amazing” and “literally” are frequently used in ways that deviate from their original meanings. “Amazing” often describes anything slightly above average, rather than something truly extraordinary. Similarly, “literally” is misused to exaggerate situations that are not literal at all.
