PERORATE Meaning and Definition

1. Perorate is a verb that is primarily used in a formal oratory context, and it refers to the act of delivering a long, formal, and often verbose speech or rhetoric in a bombastic or pompous manner. When someone perorates, they typically elaborate on their argument or ideas, attempting to make a strong conclusion or leave a lasting impact on the audience.

   The term is derived from the Latin word "perorare," which means "to speak at length" or "to make an oration." Similar to the concept of peroration in rhetoric, perorate often involves the final part of a speech, where the speaker recapitulates their main points, restates their opinion, and seeks to persuade or convince the audience through strong and persuasive language.

   In common usage, perorate can also be used metaphorically to describe someone who excessively or tediously lectures or speaks to others, often without considering their needs or interests. It denotes a sense of talkativeness or rambling discourse, where the speaker tends to dominate conversations or discussions without allowing others to contribute.

   Overall, perorate is a term mainly associated with grandiloquent public speaking, characterized by eloquent, passionate speechifying, and the desire to emphasize one's ideas or persuade others through rhetoric and elaborate persuasion techniques.

Etymology of PERORATE

The word perorate comes from the Latin verb perorare, which combines per- meaning through or thoroughly, and orare which means to speak or plead. In Latin, perorare meant to speak at length or to conclude a speech persuasively. The term was then borrowed into English in the 16th century, where it retained its original meaning of to deliver a speech or oration, especially in a pompous or long-winded manner.
