You don’t want to be standing tall using an “antonomasia” to this person.

OK sometimes I get crazy finding words to use in these posts but this one is a ringer.  I’ve done this many times but in the line of duty.  These people can cause you a world of misery depending on what you’ve done.  I’ve seen it happen more and more in my former career.  Anyway I bet you’re wondering what (an’te mo ma’zhe) is …  The use of an  title in place of a name, as calling a judge ‘his honor’.  Don’t stand in front of a judge defending you actions.  Don’t let it get that far.  Do your job right and you’ll avoid this?

James, a lot to think about.  First, I had to visit http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/antonomasia to do some learning on this word! Did you know someone could be an "Annie Oakley"? So, now that I'm smarter than I was when I woke up, what would be the quintessentially perfect way to work autonomasia into a conversation?  Also, do you know the way to Wordsmith on Active Rain?

Great title to a great post.  Could not in a million years keep from passing this by!  Have a great day.

James,

Where do you find all of these words?  I must say tho I do agree with you I would not like standing in front of a judge.
