Pompociation


the practice of deliberately pr-nouncing words in a rare, affected or conspicuously “foreignized” form in order to establish oneself as particularly intelligent or wordly.

yet janice asked her new friend, “oh, you’ve been to china too?” only 20 minutes later– using the english pr-nunciation of china rather than the native “zhong guo”.
