Wordsmith, Wordmonger, Wordslinger
I’m trying to be a writer. I noticed that people with a lot of education develop a snobby vocabulary. When I write, I feel like I use too many vocabulary words. I mean, they’re like SAT words or something. So, there are three words I use to describe people.
Wordsmith: this word is derived from the word “blacksmith.” It’s someone who constantly tries to refine their words, and they take forever to write something very short. Wordmonger: derived from the word “fishmonger.” This guy sells drivel, or potboilers that Henry James modestly calls his books. He just wants to put together a bunch of words and sells.
Wordslinger: from “gunslinger.” This guy’s smooth as polished silver! Intellectually provincial! whatever that means.
I’m at my Tuesday writer’s group at Barnes and Noble.
Word of the Day: Wordmonger
Wordmonger (wurd-muhng-ger, -mong-)
Noun
1. a writer or speaker who uses words pretentiously or with careless disregard for meaning
Word of the Day - wordmonger at Dictionary.com
"Wordmonger," noun:
"Originally: a person who deals in strange, pedantic, or empty words (depreciative). Now also: a person skilled in the use of words" How did we get from Point A ("Originally") to Point B ("Now also")? This is counterintuitive in terms of the evolution of language and this is upsetting to me. UPSETTING. (From my Oxford English Dictionary "Word of the Day" email.)
