Academese
rdfs:comment
Academese is a term referring to unnecessary jargon associated with the field of academia, particularly common in academic writing in humanities, and is contrasted with plain language. The term is often but not always pejorative, and occasionally can be used to refer to complex but necessary terminology. Critics of academese argue that it usually creates unnecessary difficulty in communication, with the most harsh critics arguing this is intentional with writers aiming to impress the readers and hide the fact that they are not saying anything of substance.
