Synopsis
This recondite caboodle of glosses panegyrizes the boggles of our palaver.* Words confirm and deny, guarantee and deceive, elucidate and obfuscate. The more words you know, the better you can express yourself and the more you can do in life. The founder of Grandiloquent Word of the Day accordingly presents a voluptuary of verbiage encompassing rare and obscure terms that confound or delight, antiquated argot from myriad epochs, and lexemes for venturesome bibliophiles. Featuring a short, insightful introduction, Grandiloquent Words offers more than 250 preternatural terminologies for you to ingurgitate and brandish with aplomb for countless occasions. Bask in cataracts of mundane morphemes, bookish locutions, beef-witted blatteroons, corporeal catastrophes, playful patois, and jolly jubilations. These always-extra expressions encompass timeless topics and modern phenomena, painting a group portrait of our foibles and joys. Replete with pronunciations, etymologies, examples, and whimsical illustrations, it will edify and entertain. *This rare collection of definitions celebrates the marvels of our language., Words confirm and deny, guarantee and deceive, elucidate and obfuscate.

- e***5 (1103)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis seller deserves 2x the possible stars, even giving the order to a third party to get the book to me when there was a stock problem. Despite all that, the book still made a timely arrival. I saw the interview with the author on EWTN, which caused my interest in it; apparently, other people did, also as there seems to have been a flurry of interest, judging by the sales.
