India Today
Shashi Tharoor engaged in friendly banter with Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) working president KT Rama Rao over his new tongue-twister word 'Floccinaucinihilipilification'.
Congress leader Shashi Tharoor, known for his penchant for rarely used, difficult-to-pronounce English words, on Friday threw in another head-scratcher floccinaucinihilipilification. I suspect @ShashiTharoor Ji Pakka has a role to play in this https://t.co/zO024Pq0Oa Not guilty! How can you indulge in such floccinaucinihilipilification, @KTRTRS? Left to me I'd happily call them "CoroNil", "CoroZero", & even "GoCoroNaGo!"
