Started watching you for 4 years now, I have passed my IELTS exam and got a job in Europe, your videos played a vital part in my speaking skills, a huge thanks for that. Love your videos and again feeling extremely grateful 🙏

Hello, native speaker here. To intensify "gorgeous," you can say "drop dead gorgeous." Also, in a lot of these phrases, "very" sounds sort of weird to English speakers, but instead of substituting for an entirely different word, we will often just replace the word "very" with a word like "really" or "super." For instance: "I was super tired last night." "I was really tired last night." Of course, we will also use other words like in this video. I'd say, among all the alternative words presented in the video, we would use these the most in place of a phrase like "really ____" or "super _____". (This is, of course, in my subjective experience. Other native speakers may say otherwise) : -gorgeous -exhausted -amazed -tiny -huge -awful -for "very difficult," we'd probably be most likely to just say "really hard" when referring to something that is difficult but we are perhaps already capable of doing, but we might say "challenging" if it is something that requires a lot of thought or self-improvement to overcome the obstacles -for "very simple," we would maybe just say that, but might also say "really basic" if simple refers to something that isn't complex, or "really easy" if it refers to something that is not difficult -starving -mad For anything not listed, it is because I think you could use the "very _____," "really _____," or "super _____" version as well as any of the alternate versions and sound like a native speaker. Again, this is just my opinion.
