    English has some interesting expressions with the word "business" – and many of them AREN'T related to work. For example:
    funny business
    [someone] means business
    [do something] like nobody's business
    make it your business [to do something]
    and more!

    You'll learn what to say in interviews, meetings, negotiations, phone calls, presentations, networking events, and more.

    You'll also expand your vocabulary in the areas of management, finance, marketing, human resources, entrepreneurship, and many other topics.

    Let's replace weak verbs with stronger verbs! Each powerful verb in this list will improve your English vocabulary and fluency.
    One of the most common problems I hear among students who are already at an intermediate level of English is that they really want to have a rich vocabulary. You don't just want to use the same basic words over and over; you want to use interesting and powerful words.
    So today I'll teach you 20 interesting verbs that will supercharge your vocabulary.
    And that's actually a good example – I could say "improve your vocabulary" or "expand your vocabulary" but those are weaker verbs than the word "supercharge." This strong verb is so much more descriptive, it creates a mental picture of getting a huge boost in vocabulary power.
