XX:WORDS, WORDS, AND WORDS

ELOQUENT comes from the root LOQUE which imply SPEAKing. LOQUE also appears in LOQUACIOUS which means to be very TALKATIVE, CHATTY. VOLUBLE is another synonym. GARRULOUS also mean highly talkative. When we are talkative we become WORDY, VERBOSE, PROLIX; we become REDUNDANT or SUPERFLUOUS(overflowing with excess and uneconomical). So, the following are all similar in meaning:

WORDY

VERBOSE

PROLIX

VOLUBLE

GARRULOUS

LOQUACIOUS

REDUNDANT

SUPERFLUOUS

When we are LOQUACIOUS we speak too much, just as when we are PROFLIGATE(extravagant) we spend too much. Hence,

SPEAK: LOQUACIOUS

SPEND: PROFLIGATE

When we're GARRULOUS we're unpleasantly talkative, just as when we are CLOYING we're unpleasantly sweet. Hence,

TALKATIVE: GARRULOUS

SWEET: CLOYING
