Spring is here! And it's a good time to do a little spring cleaning in your English, too.

You don't always need more vocabulary. Sometimes, you simply need more ways to express the same idea.

Instead of always saying “I want to…”, try:

I'm hoping to…
I'm hoping to travel more this year.

I'd like to…
I'd like to improve my English.

I'm planning to…
I'm planning to take a short trip.

I might…
I might start a new activity.

These expressions aren't exactly the same. They help you show whether something is a wish, a hope, a plan or simply a possibility.

So this spring, don't just learn more English.

Find more ways to say what you mean.

What are you hoping to do this spring?
