600 Entries for “specific”

  1. Truth is, you define specific in a general way.

  2. When talking with a therapist, I’ve found it’s important to be as specific as you can possibly be. The trend these days is therapy over the phone–so many of us move around frequently now–and when she can’t see you, specificity becomes even more important.

  3. all the information that comes to mind. color, shpae, texture, memories, floating out of my brain through my fingertips. giving as much detail as possible. specific. shade, honesty, ceasing to think attempting to record. leaving the world of vague, metaphorical understandings. Moving to a world… specific.

  4. Its what I need when you tell me I’m wrong- specify an example. I can’t handle the vague “You always do…” answer. I need you to say “You left the light on this morning when you left the house.”

  5. THE SPECIFIC STORY OF THE YEAR WAS WHEN HE PASTED. WE ALL REMEBER THAT DAY, IT WAS SUCH A SPECIFIC TIME OF DAY.
    THE TEACHERS ASKED HIM TO BE MORE SPECIFIC IN HIS WORK
    OVER AND OVER
    WE THOUGHT HE WAS SPECIFIC ENOUGH

  6. To be specific. I can’t really explain it. To tell everything. Go into detail. I’m not very detail oriented. I’m more concerned with the big picture. So I guess I don’t go into specifics often. Just the gist of things.

  7. specific examples can give people a better idea of what you are trying to say, specific details can make or break an arrangement. specifics are the fulcrum on which our finest understandings of things hinge upon.

  8. targeted. Explained thoroughly to an extreme detail as to add clarity & narrow a discussion

  9. Suddenly I’m not sure where I am.
    Perfection eludes me.
    Exasperating thoughts
    conclude ideas of
    inaccessible wonderlands of
    feebly stacked cards.
    Inspiration of the builder
    caresses my eyes.

  10. i specifically hate people who are fake
    i mean its fine to be flawed but i don’t like when people try to appear perfect
    i lived most of my life in a place that was supposed to be perfect
    and it drove me fucking crazy
    anyway you learn to deal with it
    and you become fake eventually
    and you hate yourself as well…
    i needed to move out to change

  11. thwo rtod is great it is about something that is specific to something and what it means and is not vague or confusing. it means something very deliberate and to the point, not unclear or vague. i specifically told you not to do this, so why did you do it? i don’t know, but i was clear, not unc

  12. Being specific can show the beauty of what the writer is trying to convey. The reader will have a better understanding of what they are reading, and the writer will feel more confident in their writing abilities if they are being specific. Being specific conveys details that are needed to express what the point is. In a story, it can take you to somewhere different, mentally anyway.

  13. I could be specific on the details of this story, but I have little time at the moment. I hope you are one of those rare folk, as I am, who can enjoy a random jumble of interesting words even if they make little sense.

  14. wait i just did this one
    that’s not what i meant to do
    i wish i could change the word
    that some higher power wishes me
    to write about
    specific

    i don’t think its significance is significant enough
    for me
    i cannot write coherently
    about this specific word.

    raquel

  27. He doesn’t know how to be specific about it. It’s just something he knows. Like a gut feeling, or instinct. It’s not something to be specific about, really. It never is. It’s just there and he knows.

  28. I would rather things be random than specific. If you give someone specific directions, you will get a specific answer. If you give someone random directions, you will get a more creative and interesting answer.Specificity is boring. Creativity is better.

    Jenna
  29. everything in life is specific. trees and birds that lay their eggs there. People that walk common, specific ground, they both are specific. Only our mind is specific to each one of us. They can take everything away from you, except your most hidden thoughts.

    Martin
  30. Precise and in other words safe. People who know exactly what they want seem to have many different approaches to life but they have specific ways of getting there. Life goals are most important.

    Not crimson or cherry

    Emma Cherry
  32. You’ve only go one word? really? That’s lame. Specifically, I’d like to see more words up here to ramble on about for a bit. Like sesquipedalian, that’s a word.
    Suck it.

    Carter
  33. specific is a rather specific word. im not quite sure what to say about it, as it’s really just got nowhere to go. or it has one place to go, rather. and it’s specific and lame. so im just about out of time here.

    Carter
  34. Sometimes, when he’s trying to teach me something, he skips all the general background and dives right into the specifics of things- of how to build a house or wire a home or connect a solar panel. And sometimes I just want to scream that I don’t get the difference between amps and watts and volts, and sometimes, that I don’t even care to understand it. But I listen and agree and nod my head, because I love him a lot.

  35. There is no specifics in life, its all variables and involves much interpretation. Too much is left vague and we are left to our own judgements. more is needed, but less is much more interesting.

  36. specific identities specific thoughts why specify? why not generalize. specifities lead to tags, lead to injustices. specifying a culture, specifying a color, segregates. specify only to think. think not, think.

    Katrina Fennelly
  37. Not to get too specific, but it seems to me that it was “you” who said that we needed to head for Mexico. And now, after days of hard riding, we have a posse standing between us and the Rio Grande. And now you want to bitch about it? It’s a wonder I don’t just shoot you hear and leave you here in the dust, without so much as a pile of rocks to mark your grave.

  38. the dynamic aspect of something being exact. such as the specific place I want to be right now is sleeping, but I’m incapable of doing that because I am wide awake. I need to sleep, but I can’t. It’s almost depressing. Holy hell, I now realize the epicness of this.

    Ricky
  39. Is unic, can’t be substituted and is conected to something in a single way.

  40. specificity. places, people, things. everything.

    There’s always something more or less “specific” in this world. Details. Leads to details and every little thing on this earth. Everything had something specific about it.
