What do speakers do to sound sophisticated in your language?
Post Body
If they want to sound "educated" or otherwise prop themselves up with words, how might their speech change? Do they find the most unusual synonym for every word? Maybe they make regular references to the classics of that language's history, or they try to say the most with the least (like in Momo). If you haven't thought about this yet, why not start now?
