The purpose of language is literally to communicate. If you use words in a context where you know the other person wont understand them, you are actually being a fucking retard. Strong vocabularies are useful, but only if the person you're talking to understand the words.

This thread smells of /r9k/, people trying to grow a superiority complex based on something completely fucking asinine.

I fervently maintain the conviction that one who studies the works of able writers has an obligation to utlise the much neglected words in whatever language they so happen to speak. If the person whom one is conversing with fails to comprehend, then it becomes their obligation to remedy that. Their is a point at which one is merely insulting that person, maybe be utlising archaic terminology, but their is no sufficient argument against speaking those words still used in academe or literary novels of the day. Unless the person becomes agressive of course.
