- 1多話；健談（書面名詞；比 loquaciousness 更文）
Loquacity is also the noun: the habit or quality of talking a great deal. It came through French from Latin, so it feels more Latin and more formal than — essays, criticism, and older books like it. Same meaning, higher collar. You can praise it (a gift for talk) or sigh at it (many words, little news); the sentence around it does that work. Everyday English still prefers "he talks too much" or "she's very talkative." If you meet loquacity, you are probably in written English.
組成從中古法語 loquacité 來，再往上是拉丁文 loquācitās（尾巴 -acity 就是這條路），源頭是 loquor（說、講）。
