Advice: The readers will be given a picture, and we ask them to make sentences... #1 (permalink) Tue Jun 02, 2009 3:49 am   Advice: The readers will be given a picture, and we ask them to make sentences...
 

Hi,

In my office, I'm in charge of editing our news letter. There's a new section starting next week. But I don't know how I would name it.

The new section is like this:

The readers will be given a picture, and we ask them to make sentences describing it. The possible answers are hidden and given below the picture. For example, a guy is smoking in the lobby in the picture. Then you(reader) can answer a lot of different ways- He is smoking in the lobby/He is enjoying smoking... etc. It's like paraphrasing, I think.

If you're in my shoes, what title would you give to the section? Or would you tell me the titles on my list are natural... or you could pick one of them! I think the title should be intuitive.

Here's my list:

Say it Differently
Let's Talk Variously
Ring the Changes
How to Put Another Way
In Other Words

Thanks,

These are good English:

Say it Differently
Ring the Changes
How to Put It Another Way
(I suggest 'Putting It Another Way')
In Other Words

I like your last one.

MM, Thanks a lot for checking them. I liked the last one too, but my boss preferred the first one, so the title went to.... "Say it Differently". :)
