Vocabulary
tension + build/build up
Hello,
Which verb collocates better with tension in your opinion? I think that both of them work:
- The tension in the room was building/building up.
Build up might be a little stronger. Do both of them work for you?

Both are OK. 'Building' seems to me a little more formal and stylish.
