Did You Know?
Grandiloquence, which debuted in English in the 16th century, is one of several English words pertaining to speech that derive from the Latin loqui, meaning "to speak." Other offspring of loqui include eloquent ("marked by fluent expression"), loquacious ("full of excessive talk"), and soliloquy ("a long, dramatic monologue"). Grandiloquence comes (probably via Middle French) from the Latin adjective grandiloquus, which combines loqui and the adjective grandis ("grand or great"). A word that is very similar in meaning to grandiloquence is magniloquence—and the similarity is not surprising. Magniloquence combines loqui with magnus, another Latin word meaning "great."
Grandiloquence在16世纪首次在英文中使用，它是与源自拉丁语 loqui 相关的几个英语单词之一，意思是“to speak 「说话」”。loqui 其他衍生词包括eloquent「口才好的（“能够流利的表达”），loquacious「话多的」（“过多的话”）和soliloquy「自言自语的」（“漫长而戏剧性的独白”）。 Grandiloquence「夸张」（可能通过中古法语）来自拉丁语形容词 grandiloquus，该词结合了 loqui 和 grandis（“盛大的或伟大的”）。它与 magniloquence 的意思非常相似， Magniloquence 是结合了 loqui 和 magnus 组成，是另一个拉丁词意为“great「伟大」”。
