Your phrasing is mostly understandable, but there are some precision and naturalness issues. Let’s go through each one:
1. “Paraphrase paraphrasing”
You probably mean “paraphrase the word ‘paraphrasing’” — as a phrase alone, “paraphrase paraphrasing” is ambiguous and unnatural.
✅ Correct:
Can you paraphrase the word “paraphrasing”?
2. “Varying them”
Grammatically correct and natural if context is clear.
→ To make writing smoother, I’m varying them.
→ You can vary your verbs to avoid repetition.
✅ Fine as it is.
3. “Paraphrasing them”
Also correct, but note that paraphrasing means “restating the same idea in different words.”
So paraphrasing them means “rephrasing them differently while keeping meaning.”
→ I’m paraphrasing them to sound more natural.
✅ Correct depending on context.
4. “Break them down by meaning and register (= tone or nuance)”
Grammatically correct and idiomatic.
In English, register indeed means “level of formality or stylistic tone.” So your parenthesis “(= tone or nuance)” is accurate.
✅ Completely fine.
Summary:
