A predilection by the intelligentsia to engage in the manifestation of prolix exposition through a buzzword disposition form of communication notwithstanding the availability of more comprehensible, punctiliously applicable, diminutive alternatives. Occasionally referred to, in layman's terms, as "gross verbosity". Related to this trope is the concept colloquially known as "inkhorn terms", neologisms that originate from a foreign language, such as Medieval Latin or Old French, rather than Anglo-Saxon words, which are supposedly more untroublesome for American English speakers to comprehend.
It's about the real value of a real education,
which has almost nothing to do with knowledge, but everything to do with simple awareness.
