Hi there! The word bombastic means when someone talks in a way that sounds very fancy or important, but sometimes it's too much or a little silly. It's like when someone uses really big words to show off.

Some easy words that mean the same or similar to bombastic are:

  • Fancy – something that sounds very grand or special.
  • Showy – when someone tries to get attention by acting big or flashy.
  • Over the top – when something is done too much or too loudly.
  • Loud – talking in a way that is too strong or big.

So if someone talks bombastic, they speak in a way that is big and fancy but sometimes a little more than needed.
