22 Common Nouns & What You Can Use Instead

Writers Write shares writing resources and writing tips. In this infographic, our guest blogger shares 22 common nouns and what you can use instead.

Jennifer Frost writes: ‘We all know that a large vocabulary can add life to your novel, short story, song, or poem.

This week, we invite you to peruse our list of synonyms, “22 Common Nouns & What You Can Use Instead.”

Most of these are abstract nouns, meaning you can’t see, touch, or hold them. A few could be considered concrete nouns, depending on how you use them.

Once you get used to using synonyms, you’ll find that there’s often a subtle difference among them. For example, a disadvantage isn’t as serious as a conflict, yet they’re both problems.

Any time you’re doing creative writing, keep a thesaurus nearby. If a word doesn’t seem to fit your sentence or situation, look it up and see if you can find a better alternative.

Happy writing!’
