Subject:What kind of position is a polysyllabilist ? From:"Lech Rzedzicki" <xchaotic -at- gmail -dot- com> To:techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com Date:Fri, 4 Jan 2008 15:45:02 +0100
I have exchanged emails with a person who seems to have "senior
polysyllabilist" as a job title.
>From the context and the word stem I derived that it is related to
Technical Writin.
Google told me it is pompous.
Sounds very elaborate, like a person, who is able to pronounce
multi-syllable words with no effort at all.
Any other insights?
Is this a method to avoid the payscale ceiling for Information
Develeopers?technical Writers?
