The Words That Give You Away Every Single Time

The Words That Give You Away Every Single Time

There are certain words and phrases that act like flares. The moment someone uses them, something underneath the surface is exposed. They don't know they've done it. But you'll know.


In this episode of How Words Work, I break down the specific language tells that reveal deception, evasion and hidden truth. From the word "just" and what it's almost always hiding, to the reason "never" is almost never as absolute as it sounds. From Maxine Carr speaking about two missing girls in the past tense during a live TV interview, to the email that says "just checking you got my message" when what it really means is something else entirely.


This is the most practical episode yet. By the end of it you'll have a handful of specific things to listen for in every conversation you have, and you'll never use them the same way yourself again.
