Men and women have different speech patterns. For example, women tend to use more words that emphasize other words, as in “very important,” “so pretty,” or “I really want to see that movie.” Women also hedge more than men: they use more words that weaken other words, as in “somewhat interesting,” “a bit awkward,” or “It might be significant.” And women ask more questions than men do, especially about other people’s opinions and feelings: “Do you think so?” “Is that what you’d like?” a.
