Using grandiloquence can sound overly sophisticated and out of place in casual conversations.

Sophistication Overload

Grandiloquence might confuse listeners and come across as arrogance rather than intelligence.

Misinterpretation Risk

Use grandiloquence in selective audience settings like academic or literary events.

Grandiloquence may be interpreted as exaggeration, affecting the speaker's credibility.

Be aware that grandiloquence often involves flowery language that can distract from the message.

While some audiences may appreciate grandiloquence, others might find it off-putting.
