Today’s Word: exceptional

============================

Exceptional is another good word to use to praise someone. You can use exceptional to describe someone or something that is good or high quality. For example, “She has an exceptional ability in English.” Or “Have you read the translation of this book, the writer did an exceptional job capturing all the nuances.”

This week, we’ve looked at a lot of words that you can use to praise someone: wonderful, phenomenal, splendid, and exceptional. Are these the sorts of words you’d use in Japanese, too? Do you think they are too strong, or are they commonly used in the Japanese language, too?

Bye,
