We forget that the only other reason for communication is to transfer ones thought to another - If we translate our words into something simpler - less sophisticated - thus better understood then your goal is simply met. Think about it the most effective speakers never required overly worded speeches - Take for example - Politicians - The simpler the better - You do not want to cloud out your main thought with words that simply haze on your audience - You tell them what they want to hear! - Healthcare! or perhaps something else less controversial or easier to commit to
Unless you prefer meatballs with your spaghetti - Always KISS - Keep it short and simple - and never TELL - Thesaurus every Little Litter
