WORKING WITH WORDS
Sometimes the way characters say things is not the same every single time. So the narrator uses verbs such as mutter, shriek, mumble or giggle to emphasize the emotions of the characters and the tone of their words. Some other expressions would refer to body language, such as nod or blink at.
Look them up in a dictionary and write the definition: hiss - giggle - whisper - squeak - mutter - screech - mumble - grunt - moan - gasp - scream - sigh - reply - groan - chuckle - shrug - blink at - nod - stroke
