it's a matter of getting enough words that you actively use words you don't typically think of. Like, as opposed to big you can use: huge, large, immense, gargantuan, monolithic, oversized, or ponderous
eventually you'll be like 'hey, brain, these words are more fun than the boring ones'!

Oh I do use the word huge from time to time. and Gigantic when I really think I need to express something in a large way XD ha ha I used them just for the hell of it.

that's all expanding your vocabulary is, picking words that are a bit MORE than the words you could otherwise use :)

NikkoGallarado 05-25-2012 08:48 PM


It is interesting that you can use different words just to make an explanation sound so much more entertaining and exciting.

LOL the power of words! I wield it with authority and benevolence! (which sounds so much better than 'I say it like I know what I'm talking about and as nice as I can! ;) )

NikkoGallarado 05-25-2012 09:00 PM


That is such wonderful ideal to use them in such a matter. XD

certain people haaaaaaate my use of words cause they think I'm talking down to them, but it's worse if I dumb it down*, then I'm talking down to you.

*doesn't count if I'm explaining something I said cause I used a different word, then i'm not talking down, I'm educating.

NikkoGallarado 05-25-2012 09:07 PM


I do like the words you use. At times I use them when I happen to speak with another individual on the site.

it's sorta like 'know your audience' if you know you're going to spend more time explaining and conversing it's just not worth it to use the fifty cent words.

NikkoGallarado 05-25-2012 09:14 PM


Wait, which would be the fifty cent words?

I am the manry-est of men!

Fey 05-25-2012 09:16 PM

things like:
alliteration
allegorical
elucidate
juxtaposition
erudite
brouhaha
uuuuuuuuhm...it's hard to think of them on their own LOL I need context for them!

NikkoGallarado 05-25-2012 09:17 PM


Now I will be honest with you, I have no idea what any of those words are, care to umm elaborate?

I am the manry-est of men!

Fey 05-25-2012 09:25 PM

LOL synonyms to follow:
alliteration-what we were doing earlier, words that start the same
allegorical- told in the manner of a story or lesson
elucidate- to clear up or make clear
juxtaposition- something that is opposite or contrary to something else
erudite- being well educated or well spoken
brouhaha- a fight or altercation

\o/ yay words
