The title says it all. I keep using the verb say, when starting a dialog.
I'm not an English native speaker, so excuse me for the OMG so noob question...

Finally, there are adverbs. ["...." she said, seductively.] But in some quarters, adverbs, or too many of them, will get you sent straight to hell.
I'd rather read a page full of said than read one line of ejaculated dialogue.
"Perhaps you'd like to stay a little longer," she whispered seductively. She cocked the pistol next to my ear.
Adverbs or a different word may be useful when the way the character says it is different than the surface meaning of the words:
"I'm going to f*** you," he whispered.
You can also sometimes write dialogue without using any dialogue tags at all, if it is clear who is speaking from the context.
For example:
Paul grabbed his coat off the chair. "I'm leaving now, and you can't stop me."
I stared at him. "What the hell?"
"I just can't take it any more, okay? I have to get out of here."
over ten times in the seven hours I have been registered? LoL"I want to f*** you," he whispered.
I can't believe you said it again.
How come I have read the sentence:
over ten times in the seven hours I have been registered? LoL
