Reminds me of an interview I watched with an author where she used the word "bifurcated" instead of split, which made me chuckle, because she said "the book is actually bifurcated into two halves". Bifurcated already implies 2 parts ("bi"), so it seemed she was just using that word to sound smart. Who actually says bifurcated during a conversation?
