If I want to say I want to create a new habit, for example write every day 750 words. Which is the right verb for create? Google is my constant companion. https://ell.stackexchange.com/questions/106553/what-is-the-correct-verb-to-go-with-habit This link includes some help The truth is that everyone is bored, and devotes himself to cultivating habits. ― Albert Camus Statistics show that of those who contract the habit of eating, very few survive. ― George Bernard Shaw One has to grow up with good talk in order to form the habit of it. ― Helen Hayes cultivate - good choice (5 stars) form - ok encourage Do, repeat unitl it becomes a habit .

You could say "I want to develop a new habit."

I agree with the responses suggesting "develop" as this is more frequently used. - I would like to develop the habit of writing 750 words every day. A word of warning in the use of "form," it is often used in the context of a person "forming" an addiction to a substance. Not necessarily an illegal substance. Some examples: - I've formed a smoking habit. - I've formed a caffeine habit after drinking too much Starbucks coffee.

thanks 😀

Yes, you are correct! You can say, "I would like to create the habit of writing 750 words every day." 😁👍🏽
