Today’s written communication demands that we write simply
to get our message across to our intended recipients, and therefore make an effective call for
action. Difficult words are sneered upon and writers are reprimanded for
unnecessarily intellectualizing their material. This recursive dumbing down
takes the pleasure out of indulging in usage. For six years between March 2004
until May 2010, I was blogging on this page also-
http://arjunkariyal.blogdrive.com/ Looking at the posts, it should be obvious I
wasn’t looking for eager or instant responses. I would look up the 'Word of the Day' on
m-w.com and form one sentence with the words posted in the previous 10 days. These
sentences are complex, and the self-imposed challenge was to form one sentence
with at least 10 difficult words. Here’s the entire set of 35 sentences concocted over a span
of 6 years.
-------------------------------------------------------
I love you
After a deliberate analysis of our relationship that spans
an unchallenged empyreal state of mind (sometimes futilitarian), extemporised
plans of action, euphoric contrails after parting from our meetings compared to
my sublunary day otherwise, resolving to be a better man, I've reconciled to
the conclusion that my life would be nullified without your presence in it.
In short - I love you.
-------------------------------------------------------
Hoity-toity
Depart from yeasty navel-gazing and artifice; least we are
amerced for the defalcations of luscious dreams of promethean goals and left to
repine for substantive time lost.
-------------------------------------------------------
Boo!
Given half a chance I would frog-march colloguing puerile
hangers-on, but I display a clement side of myself, spinning paeans in great
alacrity, seldom repine; asking for nothing more than a sward in this frowsy
tatterdemalion terrain of soi-disant nonpartisan assemblage.
-------------------------------------------------------
yaaaawn!
Make not my introduction too prolix and dragoon young minds
with hebetude, else a golem of ineffable and undulant sentiments are most
likely to show up for an audience!
-------------------------------------------------------
manticore
Indagate and extricate, and not aggress and conglobate; what
is exoteric, when being castigated with the gauche to see the red herrings and
lacunae in apparently fastidious processes.
reifying litotes
Boggart me not into trichotillomania with your indurate
alembic by refuting Occam's razor for the simplest of things by lionizing a morass of a nemiety of irrelevance, for I
prefer the conscientious over the peregrine.
-------------------------------------------------------
commoved
The rambunctious yet ubiquitous lot met and confabulated
after a decade at an event that fell into desuetude, and age seemed not to have
attenuated their minatory naunces amidst the victuals of the bygone era.
-------------------------------------------------------
extirpate dyspeptic quislings
Indomitable as they may appear, tolerate not sycophants, who
cavil with gibberish fraught with ulterior motives- antithetical to your
panoptic and sagacious perspective.
-------------------------------------------------------
this sludge-grogery
Rescue us from the whammy of rebarbative effusings from
overweening entrants exiting nonage adopting perfunctory routines which can
lead to an underwhelming ambience goading us, rutilant, and glancing at the
skies with longanimity, praying for a deus ex machina to intervene and salvage
this futile drudgery- this sludge!
-------------------------------------------------------
jaunty chimera
An offsite is always an effective nostrum in an interstice
in work after much enveighing, and bucolic Goa (no ersatz for it) was a perfect
milieu for concomitant diablerie from everyone with it's panoply of fun-filled
events!
-------------------------------------------------------
Ostensible Fanfaronade
Refute if you must if you find this tetchy; but I would
remain pervicaciously insouciant in my vexing usage in this little vernissage
of mine and shall show no promise of surcease of this arcane hobby.
-------------------------------------------------------
Savvy?!
Be solicitous; for despite my commodious heart, maybe not to
my delectation, I'd say it was unfortuitous that my dexterous confrere should
insuperably pontificate in mimesis, picaresque, yet orotund quotes, and invite
visceral reactions from the camaraderie.
schwarmerei
Desiccated but dauntless, she decided to oppugn his
sempiternal inflictions with ad hoc measures and yet retain her mellifluous,
immaculate self; determined not to succumb to constellating thoughts and
unprepossessing perceptions from those around.
Find this hortative, but expiate nevertheless for your
esoteric bricolage that stonewalls all protocols of easy communication which is nothing more than a travesty of
what's actually in your dilettante head and not a sedulous student of grammar and
usage, if you don't mind the peccadillo, you obstinate misanthrope.
dilettante
Despite the mordant and eolian effect of time in our mien,
we shelve our disparate yet sedulous perspectives and congregate at an
olfactory location, 'Flavors' sometimes- under the Moolchand flyover, not to
cerebrate but to reminisce of ITGO, the nidus of our madness, which at times
sparks a risorgimento for adventure and seeking, instigating us to plan yet
another trip out of town.
stentorian whispers
Though I consider plans sancrosanct, most of my milestones
have, ab initio accrued from decisions made in a state of carpe diem, without
cunctation, and have orchidaceously been acquisitive for other syncretisms of
life- not that I intend to adduce meliorism of any sort nor lugubriously lament
on my deviations, but the undulated spontaneity has been the leitmotif, theriac
if I may, that has coaxed me to move on.
doggeral fiasco
the more we ostentatiously indulge in inesculent and
anfractuous usage, the more we disparage and so invite scurrilous effusings and
saltation from even the phlegmatic ones around.
Seeds for Kaizen
I wouldn't wheedle out of contretemps which could redound to
the team's persona nor take umbrage at inimical persiflage- rather contain my
ebullience against splenetic dispositions and clinically, with deference, steer
the predicament to an apt finale.
Bogus!
my stay lasted through the belle epoque and since the
brilliant kapellmeister left to hand over the reins to a bogus heir and yahoos,
malversation has scumbled the work culture.
Argus
deploy utile skillsets on terra firma like an obsequious
servant and do that with elan and mayhap the effulgence could alleviate
disgruntlement.
At the zenith of one's brilliance, making flippant remarks
from cerebral detritus devoid of any praxis could only betray nescience leading
to quietus in major activities, skulking away to hunting about for vulnerary
talk and temporising to throw your nemesis off-track.
jejune telegraphese harangue
From a piabald accumulation of ambitions to ponder over, I
still wouldn't feel expropriated or change things if I could start ab ovo, but
I think I would be an auto mechanic or at least an auto-artist if not scripting
anti-establishment diatribes deriding imperialistic monpolisers; equivocally
speaking.
shrive of politesse
Not that I intend to sound disparaging, but just in case you
consider your verbal riposte and apophasis as a panacea to your teams's
performance and internal chemistry which is far from copacetic, I recommend you
let go of misbegotten notions and direct your celerity to salvage team morale
which is in shambles.
yap
"Why bloviate sophomorically?" he glowered while
yawping."Can't you use simple words well within the ken of our target
audience?"
"Well," said I in an oracular tone,"just
leveraging upon the prowess of articulation to indoctrinate our mission
statement and pedestal our eclectic portfolio."
"Alright then, you misanthrope, but do police
extraneous or any capricious usage whatsoever. You have a yen to gorgonize
readers with your verbose style. Don't you turn a proposal into something of
much consternation."
bloviate
as i devoured the pages edaciously, i resiled to a sedate
frame of mind, aborning new ideas, nascent, embryonic; troglodyte to my
immediate surroundings; no more oracular to anything, much as i may would like
to, as my new learnings would undergird new thoughts, ramifying to all nooks of
the gargantuan abyss of my imagination.
motley expulsions
Under the tutelage of my basic drawings teacher, of the same
cadre, I have learnt not to ululate in times of despair or resort to
billingsgate since the aleatory nature of life have taught me to withstand the visissitudes of events that weather me;
though my expulsions may appear desultory, motley and surely not placid.
The emancipation of the soul is initiated amongst friends
being able to gauge the gamut of one's angst and obviate effusions and
efficacious philosophies; thanks to our proclivity to having a tendentious
opinion of a life of melancholy.
I must venture out on this trenchant emprise and expect a
high incidence of world know-how; per contra, things are too easy and I placate
the self within the sinecure of home.
in limbo
Exiting the hermitage, one had to perpend and celebrations
had to be put in abeyance in light of the cataclysm in mutitudinous
communities. Maldroit experts who were aware of the event in sub rosa and could
not salvage the situation that could have been contained to a certain extent,
have been dilatory about the inundation that has eventuated. Frenetic effusings
in media result in no squib on the tregedy or feigned empathies from close
quarters cannot succor us to circumvent the calamity.
-------------------------------------------------------
slake in purlieu
After effusing much encomium for M C Eicher's
phantasmagoria, I was elevated from my diffident and trepid phase to a
superjacent level where I parted from tergiversation of expression; allowing an
argosy of inveterate collages much ensconced in the attic of an itinerant
graphic artist.
An ardous task as it may appear to be, in search of
expanding one's epistemic perimeter, one has to detach from whilom achievements
and cerebral purlieu that blandish us from advancing and to keeps us from
turning into a nebbish denizen of the past that wistfully revels in nostalgia
and resorts to chicanery.
retaining quiddity
Despite being generally imperturbable and maintaining a rectitudinous self through a
jungle of disparaging durations, I transmogrified into a froward, precocial
entity I would abjure normally which would tantamount to one of a stolid
outlook repudiating all aspersions of a liminal persona bruited about; with no
sight of a mea culpa accrued xenophobically.
svelte alibi
I'm looking forward to the day when I can expunge this
mundane routine of mine from my life, abnegate the luxuries of this cushy job
made up of pecuniary favors and acquiesce with companionable nods like a
milquetoast, for this is misprison of my perception of life to justify inert
impuissance, endorsing my fallibility with impunity galore and abstrusive clerisy.
abstruse simulacrum
Overcome with hubris, risking solecism in a festinate
attempt, I conjured an abstruse collage of words to stump amenable blog readers;
unless ofcourse, their hypermnesia can retrodict that my pertinacious attempt
of usage is a mere simulacrum of April's daily words on www.m-w.com; enough to
deserve being disseised of usage and subjected to incarceration.
a surfeit of jabberwocky!
I spent this fecund day by learning a few new words, reading
a book and and revising my french; by far the least vapid of holidays I've had
in a long time, flagging an epoch for personal development with sesquipedalian
intentions!
Philomath!
It shall be in the state of inebriety that our passible
selves will osculate with the eximious details of life; concerning love and
good friends. These contemplations are apodictic and seldom bloviated, almost
visceral but surely ameliorated with equally convivial company!
Grandiloquent Indulgence
I have to be more considerate; in general. Perpetually
nostalgic of the erudite leadership of a previous manager who quit, I seem to
expel an eristic air and elliptical replies to irrelevant blabber from my
scrofulous colleague (Senator Glutus Maximus himself) who I'd idoneously
recapitulate as a sciolist. They are intolerable and my desire to be
holophrastic, inevitable. Enough.
