The Word We’re Literally Overusing… Literally 😂

Okay, we need to talk about a word that has taken over conversations, captions, and TikTok comment sections like it pays rent. That word is — you guessed it — “literally.”

It used to mean exactly as stated. You know, like:

“The train station is literally two streets away.”

But now? Oh no. Now it’s the drama king of the English language:

“I was literally dead from laughter.”
“This pizza is literally heaven in my mouth.”

First of all… are you okay? Second of all, that’s not literal at all.

Why We Do It 😅

1. Because Everyone Else Is Doing It – Social media is basically a contagious word factory.
2. It Feels Dramatic – Why say I’m happy when you can say I’m literally over the moon, doing cartwheels in my soul?
3. Habit – Sometimes it slips out before you even notice.

The Problem

When everybody uses the same “OMG emphasis” word, it stops having any punch. “Literally” is now the boy who cried wolf… but with grammar.

Fun Alternatives to Try

• Feeling intense? Say: absolutely, seriously, legit.
• Being dramatic (on purpose)? Say: practically, virtually, almost.
• Want a twist? Make up your own silly exaggerations like: “I’m emotionally moonwalking right now.”

Bottom line: I’m not saying we should cancel “literally.” I’m just saying… maybe let it take a vacation so our sentences can breathe again. And I am literally begging you. (Okay, not literally.)
