You can solve this by having them take a walk in your shoes.Ask them to express what you said in a simpler way. You should confidently say:“can you put it any simpler?”or“I dare you to express this in simpler language.”Once they do (not) do that, point out that the exact configuration of words were necessary to communicate the ideas expressed.Note that this would be shooting oneself in the leg if they do, in fact, express the thoughts better in simpler language. So one should by their own judge as to why they use the words, in the first place.The difference between the type of language user who naturally thinks at a certain plain and one who simply uses a dictionary to amplify their vocabulary is that while the former utilizes unusual words for clarification of concepts, the latter employs them for complication of sentences. If you're of the clarification type, when people attempt to simplify your statements, some of the following would be encountered:They'll end up with longer statements.Some of the words would be so ambiguous, the intended meaning could be easily misconstrued. You will find that they do not quite hit the nail on the head.There will be lots of word repetitions if the text is voluminous.The statements will not evoke any unique emotions.The above will be the case as these are some of the issues the intelligent speaker would have tried to overcome. They offer good reasons why one should endeavour to have a sufficiently broad vocabulary.
Israel? Is that true on saturdays? jewish people shouldn't turn on the tv and they should disconet everything?
Orthodox Jewish thought is that electricity cannot be used, except when there is no choice. Turning on a tv is forbidden from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday (Shabbat); however, if the tv is already on you technically can't turn it off either. Not sure about changing channels, though, so I'll say no. Disconnecting would be helpful but not necessary. You just should avoid turning things on or off. Actually, my stove has "Shabbat mode" (that we never use) which can be set for a certain time and heat up via a timer. As long as it is set during any time other than the Sabbath, it is still Kosher. Timers for other things, especially when night comes early in the winter, make things a lot easier: Just set them before sundown Friday, so that your world isn't modified during Shabbat. Pesach ends Monday, if I'm not mistaken. Edit: The typical Israeli will see nothing wrong with using electricity on Shabbat, and most non-Orthodox Jews around the globe use electricity all week.
