I don't want to be snooty or anything like that, but I'm looking for vacab words to describe important things stronger. Like a word for round, colorful, etc.
Or just plain vocab!

[King Tutankhamun]

You may want to use a Thesaurus, such as this one http://thesaurus.reference.com/ .

You can learn lots of fancy ways to say simple words, and it can make your sound more profound.

Here's some for Colorful: bright, chromatic, flashy, florid, gaudy, hued, intense, jazzy, kaleidoscopic, loud, motley, multicolored, picturesque, prismatic, psychedelic, rich, showy, splashy, variegated, vibrant, vivid

[Quacker]

Satiate. (Say-she-ate) That's the most uber word. It means "to fulfill" or "to satisfy".

[EKen132]

Here's a good word. Salient.

Here's words that you can learn, and they have a good application besides just having a bigger vocab. Some of them are kind of advanced or rare, but without being too pretentious.

Expanding your vocabulary is a lifelong process, unless you sit down and memorize a dictionary.

[Java3]

Thanks! Now I know that I don't need to always hear everything. We might have a thesaraus.....

[King Tutankhamun]

Yea, that's good. And also by reading more fancy things you'll pick up on words that they use and become more profound in your speech. It's neat to use strong words to better emphasize things that simple words could have done.

[Titus Ultor]

Here's a word that you have probably heard, but couldn't use in a sentence: "Antidisestablishmentarianism". It means, in my words, someone who is against the disestablishment movement, which stated that there should be a seperation between church and state. Here are a couple ways you could use it (it really impresses professors):

"Both Voltaire and Thomas Jefferson stood staunch against the attacks of antidisestablishmentarianism on their beliefs."

"Many of the newly reelected President's Evangelical supporters are antidisestablishmentarianists".

[Bakayaro]

Hippopottomonstrosesquippedaliaphobia is a fun word

It means the fear of long words.

I knew this word for some lung disease... I'll have to ask my friend what it is again...

More useful and fun words are

Cantankerous, Discombobulate, and Circumlocution

[Uppy]

There's ostentatious which means proud, stuck-up, and there's magnanamus which mean noble hearted, nice, and you can always check out this website

[av_nefardec]

Read books. Classic books, not cheesy pop novels.

There are more important things than vocabulary involved with expression. I am talking about rhetoric, style - eloquence. Good books teach all of these things.

[goldenratiophi]

Two of my favorite words to use in everyday speech are "incompetent" and "loquacious." I'm sure you know what "incompetent" means and that you deal with those people all the time . "Loquacious" means "excessively talkative."

[Mythos_Ruler]

lambent (adj) - a light touch, softly lit. "The stars twinkled with a lambent beauty."
