How to tool up before we get started
How to
speak like a thespian
decline politely, or impolitely
throw shade (and keep your dignity intact)
say it with flowers
talk about gender
colour your emotions
identify emotional overload
dodge offence (while speaking your mind)
describe all your corporeal bits and juices
talk euphemistically about the bathroom
follow Mrs Higgins’s advice and talk about the weather
have fun with collective nouns
speak like a movie star
wax rhapsodic
be brave
describe what you do (and how you are remunerated)
talk about money (if you must)
describe just how far you would like to go, how much you want and when
sashay with sartorial elegance
navigate the many metaphors of sex
describe each chapter of a love affair
be naughty but nice
speak like a personal trainer verbivore
allow the culinary to feed our discourse
let the music in
successfully close your lexical bin
A Final Word
