What is the most overused word?

It's impossible to definitively say which word is the *most* overused, as it depends on context and how you define "overused."

However, some contenders for the title of "most overused word" include:

* "Literally": Used frequently, often incorrectly, as an intensifier rather than its literal meaning.

* "Like": Used as a filler word or to indicate similarity, often excessively.

* "Actually": Frequently used to express disagreement or to introduce a correction, often making a statement more forceful than necessary.

* "So": Overused as a filler word, particularly in speech.

* "Very": A common intensifier that can often be replaced by a more specific adjective.

Ultimately, the "most overused" word is subjective and depends on your individual perception and the specific context in which you're encountering words.
