Verbage vs. Verbiage

[AnthonyRalano]

I come across many customers who tell me they will send me the verbage. I always have a mental picture of words in a trash can.

I don't know what verbage is... but verbiage is too much or excessive words used to describe something that could have been said with less.

I guess you could say verb[aH]ge like with a waspy, quasi british accent with nose and pinky in the air, to sound like you are eloquent. HAHA! (While shopping at Tarjay)

I don't use either, but just hear it all too much. Such as...Can we shorten the verbiage? By definition, no. And verbage which the urban dictionary defines as trash talk.

That's cute. As for myself, dealing in signs, vehicle wraps, websites and SEO, verbiage makes up a huge part of what I strive to provide for my clients.
