In writing, there are a million different ways in which we can spice up a quote by substituting "said" with various other phrases, depending on the context/situation. Obviously, this makes the text more interesting and descriptive...
For example:
"I hate you!" Darren shot back.
"We'll see who wins!" Sean fired back.
"Just wait and see," Jim murmured.
"100?" she guessed.
"Not today," he groaned.
"Why don't we go tomorrow?" she kindly suggested.
Of course, in casual speech, we tend to stick with simple words such as said, asked, told __, thought, etc.
I was wondering if someone might give a breakdown of some other common or fun alternatives to "...."라고 말했다?
Also, what's the best way to say, "I thought to myself" or "He/She thought to his/herself?" e.g. "No way! He's wrong, and I'm definitely right," I thought to myself.
Thank you in advance~^^
