    Yes you can, but you can't just copyright it because of that.
    If you use it as a slogan for products then you can.

    You can't make a product and put as the slogan "Amazing" then copyright it, then sue anyone who says "Amazing"....

    i think you can trademark a word/phrase but not copyright it, that's just for works, like essays, photos, videos etc.
