Pleonastic...with props to EvB
« on: January 21, 2010, 02:55:31 PM »
 
    Gotta doff my chapeau to you for this one, EvB. As a word junkie, I just had to know the meaning of pleonastic. Little did I know that, in addition to describing yours truly to a T, the trove revealed when moving on to the thesaurus phase would prove still more fabu: palaverous, periphrastic, prolix...I'll be dining out on these for months.
 
Ta,

Wonderful!  I didn't know those words.  I'll add them to my list.

I think I was in the drug trial for Prolix when I was in college...but I can't remember for certain, I was doing a LOT of freelance drug trials in those days as well...
