Quick explanation

Wordy emails hide the point behind long sentences and filler words. Use the readability checker to spot the extra weight, then move to the generator when the draft is ready to tighten. Compare it with the main clarity guide and paragraph length examples.

This may be why your email is hard to read. Dense sentences and weak structure slow the reply.

Examples

What wordy emails look like

Too wordy

I was just wondering if you might maybe have a chance to take a quick look at the revised deck and let me know your thoughts when you get a chance. The sentence keeps going and hides the ask.

Clearer

Could you review the revised deck by Friday? The request is short and easy to scan.

Too many fillers

I think it would basically be really helpful if you could just send the notes sometime soon. The filler words make the request harder to hear.

Better

Could you send the notes by Friday so I can review them before the meeting? Direct, short, and easy to answer.

Common mistakes

Watch for these traps

Long sentences

Make the reader keep track of too many ideas at once.

Filler words

Slow the message down and blur the main request.

Unclear structure

Pushes the point too far down the page.

What works

This is what clear emails actually do:

These drafts are easier to read:

Keep one sentence focused on one idea.
Cut filler words that do not change the meaning.
Put the request near the top of the draft.
Trim repeated context before you hit send.
