SAAT SAMUNDAR PAAR...(MIGRATORY WORDS)

I don't know why they do it? Now look at the word MODUS OPERANDI: It simply means a method of operating or functioning. It is a Latin word. You will see that ,this is a word often associated with any burglary or even murder sometimes. The synonyms are routine, a process, a method. But seriously, why do the authors do it? Why couldn't they have used the simple words? This makes me ponder about the incentive attached to being so verbose. Is it that they want to impress their readers? Or be the center of their attention or just that they are a bunch of sadist who enjoy imagining the perplexed expression on their readers' face.
Like tough English words were not enough!!!!!!!!!! The rampant use of foreign words is definitely not going to let us breathe easy. Can we fight this? Not Really. Like they say if you can’t fight them, join them. No guys I wouldn't like to join the much hated league. On the other hand, your very own AGONY AUNT is right here, trying to placate the pain of mugging up new words. Before they take a toll on you, let's conquer them.
Hence I would keep updating you with the new foreign words. Other commonly used foreign words are:
Penchant (French) means a strong inclination, taste or liking for something. Panache (French) means Dash and Flamboyance, Style. Aficionado (Spanish) means an ardent devotee. Bete Noire (French) means something or someone particularly disliked. Dolce Vita (Italian) just means sweet life .Faux pas (French) is a social blunder. Schadenfreude (German) is a person who derives pleasure at someone's distress. In situ (Latin) means situated in the original or natural position and Quid pro quo (Latin) means something for something, equal exchange.
OK…signing off for now…will be back soon with more GENRE of words.....

Modus operandi (m.o.) is used by police to describe a criminal's characteristic way of commiting a crime.
