👉 Sententiousness is a type of linguistic expression that can be used to describe an excessive or overly long sentence. It refers to a deliberate attempt to create a sense of meaninglessness by using complex or elaborate vocabulary and phrases, often in order to convey a particular message or idea more effectively than one would naturally express through simple language. Sententiousness is often used in literature, journalism, and other forms of communication where the speaker wants to make their point or convey a certain tone.
