Garbl's Writing Center: Long Words
A word substitution list. "Consider using these shorter, simpler alternatives to bureaucratic, overstated and pompous words. Note that several simple words may be clearer than a single long word." Also links to wordy phrases and redundancies, with more suggested substitutions. By a "writer, editor, media planner and communications specialist."
