Using unnecessary words in your writing makes it inefficient and cumbersome. The thought that could be expressed with a single word should not be expressed with more than one word if they are not necessary for rhetorical purposes. Using words in excess of necessity may not make the language grammatically incorrect, but it is incorrect and non-standard according to the grammar of the script.
choose the correct word
In communicative writing, such as letters, business reports, news, articles, etc., you should always try to keep your language as simple as possible. And, most of the time, the short forms of words or expressions guarantee simplicity, while the longer ones make it difficult to understand the language. So use one word instead of more when one word will suffice. See the following examples.
Verbose: When doing the cooking It’s over, call me.
Shorts: When Cooking It’s over, call me.
Wordy: Sabuj I will not comment with reference to that matter.
