The woody language sometimes called humorously xyloglossia or xylolalia, is a rhetorical figure consisting of avoiding presenting a reality by the use of turns of phrase and usual expressions.
It
is a form of communication that can serve to conceal an incompetence or
a reluctance to approach a subject by proclaiming abstract, pompous
banalities or appealing more to feelings than to facts.
It is less a matter of impressing the interlocutor by passing for more learned than one is than evading the subject in order to avoid answering a question or an embarrassing subject.
