Word of the Day

Logorrhoea
Variant: or chiefly British log·or·rhoea
/"log-&-'rE-&, "läg-/
Function: noun
: pathologically excessive and often incoherent talkativeness or wordiness that is characteristic especially of the manic phase of manic-depressive disorders —log·or·rhe·ic or chiefly British log·or·rhoe·ic /-'rE-ik/ adjective


I love this word for so many reasons. 1. I have exhibited Logorrhoeic behavior. I am quite loquacious at times. 2. There is a particular individual that I had class with last semester that to me epitomizes logorrhea.
