logorrhoea

It was interesting to see the different meanings behind logorrhoea. How it can be used as a euphemism, or the use of long words that aren't needed and how it is defined as a language dissorder. The author of the article spent a lot of time giving examples of this term and I personally found these examples helpful. How the author could take a simple evrey day saying and make it into a confusing statement was quite interesting.

I competely agree. I think that taking something that makes complete sense and changing it is an amazing thing. Confusing, but amazing. I never really thought of this type of thing untill this class then some of the things that i would think of without question has now made me think twice about it.
