Even protracted ruminations on the subject matter of sesquipedality has never led me understand the need for such acute communicatory profligacy. Engagement is such demeanour is often profligate. No doubt it sounds impressive, it conveys little leaving the reader discombobulated. Effective communication rests heavily on easy comprehension and sesquipedalian language does not lend it self to easy comprehension.
Now in English
I have never understood the need to use big words in communication. Using big words defeats the purpose of what it intends to do i.e communicate ( I am assuming it intends to communicate and not impress per say). Use of such language leaves the reader/listener confused about the meaning to what is being said. Communication depends on how easily people understand what they are hearing or reading. Using big words often confuses people and therefore is not good for communication
