👉 Pontificious refers to someone who is excessively or unnecessarily ostentatious, pompous, or arrogant. It can refer to a person's behavior that goes beyond what is considered appropriate or proper in society, such as wearing expensive jewelry or attending extravagant parties. In legal contexts, pontification may be used to argue for the rights of an individual or group, but this term typically describes someone who oversteps their bounds and often results in negative consequences.
