Question

What word(s) do you use to sound smart and intellectual?

Answer 1

irate, contingent, pinky, newtsack (instead of n*****k)

Answer 2

I like to say perhaps instead of maybe, haha. Subtle.

Answer 3

Sagacious, facetious, perspicacious.  All relate to being clever and /or witty.  Personally, I really like to work in vociferous as well once in a while (means enthusiastic).

Don't use "perfect storm" to describe anything though.  Its such a cliche now!

Speaking slowly enough to actually pronounce all of the words is a big part, too!

Answer 4

Plethora, Epiphany, Copecetic

Answer 5

intelligent, disobedience, contradict hey there's a few

Answer 6

big ones like interesting, gullable, convenient, conquests, genitalia... u know big words

Answer 7

Rather than saying "like" a lot as most people do, you can instead say: "such as", "resembling" and "similar to". You can use "reminiscent of" and "in the vein of", although I recommend you use those words sparingly.

Also, using idiomatic expressions or phrases while you speak. They help make you sound intelligent. There are a lot of sites that can help you with this. A few common ones you can use in every day life are adding fuel to the fire [which means you/they are making a current situation worse], and look before you leap [which means that you should think carefully about the consequences of your actions before doing something].

Plus, when you speak becare you don't use words so superfluously. Just use a few intelligent sounding words you found from a thesaurus, but always make sure you know what those words mean first ;)

Hope this helped :D
