The sharpest word-building laboratory in Grandomastery: a complex statement appears loaded with sophisticated vocabulary from one root family (e.g., “The irrefutable refutation of the referee’s decision caused irreparable damage to the referee’s reputation”). You have 8–12 minutes to:
dissect every word into prefix, root, suffix,
complete a morphological table showing all possible derivations,
invent three brand-new, plausible English words using the same patterns,
and deliver a fluent 2–3-minute spoken mini-lecture (or written commentary) that naturally uses your new coinages while explaining the family’s logic and beauty.
The result is a performance that sounds like a linguistics professor who secretly writes for the Oxford English Dictionary.
