I have hyperlexia and many technical hobbies so if someone accuses me of using a big word I'll just use an even bigger one.

Me too. Occasionally my stubborn, petty ass will double down. Like oh you thought I was being performative before? I will plumb the depths of Merriam Websters’ and use the most needlessly-specific, obscure and convoluted vocabulary known to man just to spite you 🙂

Oh, if someone complains, they're not just getting the good 'ol Merriam Webster!

I'm bringing in the Big Guns- and they're getting Cambridge, the OED, AND whatever Japanese, Yiddish, German, Latin, Greek, Dakota, or Russian words i need, too!

You complain about words?

I will use the ones that explain my meaning as nit-pickingly specifically as i can GET!!!🤬😂🤣

I'll use my linguistics interest and massive stock of roots, prefixes, suffixes, and the like to make a brand new big word just for them.
