[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a writer with a graduate degree in English and a JD. I use a thesaurus for work most days. I would not have used peripatetic in an email. It sounds pretentious.[/quote] Right? But, op is so full of herself. I was in academia for a long time, and never read that word in any academic papers.[/quote] A poster on page 4 quoted two different uses of the word in the New York Times since August and said she sees it at least once a month, so it’s apparently not that unusual a word.
