In the last few days, I have been reacquainted with several choice words and expressions in the English language, thanks to the pomposity of the legal minds making their cases in the British High Court. It wouldn't have happened if not for the high profile case of the sale of a little football club -- sorry, I meant the Liverpool Football Club -- and the threat of the club plunging into administration. Can you see what we are missing from not learning the English language well?
extraordinary events
most outrageous abuse of process
grossly inappropirate
unconscionable scurrilous allegations
epic swindle
grand conspiracy
wild and scurrilous
absolute poppycock
abusive, vexatious and oppressive
grotesque parody
preposterous
incorrigible
sitting and giggling
impoverished
Do you mind explaining the meaning of each word? Too deep for me.
