Do you know the definition of macroverbumsciolist?
The students in teacher Jamie Reuben's Word Power class do!
In case
you are wondering, the word means: (1) a person who
is ignorant
of large words, or (2) a person who pretends to know
a word, then
secretly refers to a dictionary. Word Power is a
semester-long
class that introduces students to many new
words by teaching them
how to break a word down into its
known parts to arrive at its
meaning.
