Hi Randy D, Yes, when the moment is right... I love to wax floral, pursue the perissology a bit...grin sweetly and then absquatulate...cop and blow...
* * * However my rule is like the Cheshire cat (Mad Hatter, WHO??), the words/grammar serve ME, they mean what I want them to mean I do not kowtow to any adverb or semicolon whatsomoreover!
Lucia, I actually came back to be a little more, well, honest here...because of course it is usually better to communicate with fewer words...but online, with Q/A friends, it is fun to experiment with various forms of expressiveness...
You don't have facial expressions or body language online...so verbal forms are all you have to express humour...Didge and I started with each other back in 2011, I felt very free with him to explore the use of written language to build friendship...
And yes, to answer your Q I love to make up words, or use the wrong word especially if it is a LONG word...occasionally someone misunderstands and gets angry or upset, so I might need to send 'em a wink ;) or something like that...
I sometimes think of the song... "It's only words... And words are all I have... To take your heart away..."
Lovely, Virginia. Yes, we've had lots of fun hurling strange words at each other over the past six years. In effect we built a word bridge across the Pacific. :)
I never use plain language when a little hyperbole will spice up the paragraph. I'm not actually very good at it but my laptop comes with a hyperbolic chamber and I just feed in my own pitifully plain language and see what comes out.
I can demonstrate its power right now. I just fed Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star into hyperbole.exe and look how it came out:
Scintillate, scintillate, globule lucific Fain would I fathom thy nature specific Loftily perched in the ether capacious Strongly resembling a gem carbonaceous
