do you use them even when you don't know the meaning? sometimes I listen to people and what they say makes no sense

OK I must look this word up indubitably. I know the meaning of many words but this one is new to me period. I love learning new words and their meanings

haha
usually not, unless it's with someone I know really well and they know that I'm just messing around, because I don't want to come across as a snob or something.
I can't stand snobby people and I don't want people thinking I'm one ...
:O)

Indubitably

No, not anymore. Now, I think that it's more important to be understood than to be intimidating. And yes, I caught myself going out on a limb with a word which meaning I wasn't sure of.....

When I was younger, I wanted people to know that they were talking to an educated person so I pulled out my repertoire of thesaurus words. But now, since I'm older, the content of what a person says is more important.

Most indubitably! It allows me to feel superior to the misanthropes that I call my friends. It also allows me feel like the pompous gasbag I am.

I use "big" words all the time. But not to impress. It's just because I know them and I use them. It usually annoys the
h ell out of my family and friends.

I only use words that I know the meaning to don't want to make myself out to be an idiot

No, I use large words quite often, however.

I understand the meaning and use them in the correct context though.
